Yeah yeah, I know this is a contour message board... A while back I posted about a friend of mine who bought a 93 Honda Civic EX ATX. I knew it wasnt anything special, but I convinced him to buy it because he needed a car that got WAY better gas mileage then his lifted truck. He wanted it as a daily driver, but caught the mod bug shortly after purchasing it. He set off upgradeing it, even though it was an ATX he is determined to get some power out of it. After putting a Skunk2 intake manifold on, redoing the entire exhaust system, a DC header, and an AEM air intake he just wasnt satisfied... A friend of his sold him a custom turbo setup, Im not 100% sure but its an Apexi kit with a greddy turbo and intercooler. Since his car has an ATX he made sure the boost was low, so it only runs at about 5 PSI, which he will be changing soon. He asked me today to take some videos of it for him, so I made a little compilation video of it just from the pics and videos I took today... The turbo really starts kicking in at around 4K rpm's. It sounds just beautiful. Its too bad we couldnt get it out on the freeway (didnt have time)
tell me what you guys think, and try not to be too biased, I know its a Honda.
