He's not looking to build a high hp motor nor will it be a daily driver, just a fun weekend car.

Last edited: Feb 4, It sucked and its hard on parts to shock everything with a sudden surge of power like that all the time. Much better to have a turbo thats matched to the car and gives you a wide power band. You want a wide power band over power spikes. And why have a turbo that wants to make 40 psi when all you need is 10? For both road racing and drag you will want a smaller turbo. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk.

They would spool exceptionally fast and wouldn't get outside of their efficiency limit around rpm. After that you could feel the powerband really begin to drop off as the rpm went up and the turbo was outside the top of the efficiency map.

You really need to study up on boost maps and and see how much CFM the D16 puts out. You can figure out where the sweet spot on the boost map is and match it to your rpm scale. This way you are consistently utilizing the turbo where its efficiency is best. Spooled said:. That Isuzu turbo has a very odd flange, wouldn't bother with it. The TD05 family 14b,16g will suit your needs very well. If his goals are only whp why put rods and pistons in, is this just a starting point?

My vote is for a t3 60 trim. My car makes whp tq and max boost of 8 psi by about rpm depending on gear and speed it can be sooner or later but is average. Depending what kind of money your friend has he could go with a twin scroll turbo but then that requires a custom manifold and two external wastegate but you can run a much larger turbo and have it spool like a smaller turbo the lancer evolution turbos are an example.

A t28 is probably the best bet for quick spool but only if his overall goal is less than hp, I believe the garrett gt28 are a t28 size turbo with a t3 flange which is your best bet because most manifold options for civics are t3 flanged and adapters make the turbo to low.
