The reason no one does it is because you are trying to swap it into a OBD2 car. That is one of the worst swaps I have heard of. Tell him to sell the ZC and at least get a LS motor

just curious, but why would he want a pre-90's motor that has what, 135 hp? he couldve bought that LS motor and beaten a ZC.

This kid has no idea what he is doing or talking about. The compression on an all motor engine will not accept a turbo even at low boost and will cause the motor to pop. More than likely sending a rod through the block. Let me know when he gets done I want to come watch and laugh my ass off.

boysboys, High compression turbo is where its at. 10.5-11.5:1 ant 10lbs makes SICK power. look at tonytheTIger on HT, 11.5:1 , disco potato, ITBs, that is the sickest integra i have ever seen.

Now, I HIGHLY doubt an ALL Motor ZC ran 12s, post timeslips.

furthermore, this is the DUMBEST thing i have ever seen, you could run a EX /y8 motor for roughly the same thing a ZC costs and it would be PLUG AN PLAY.
you get no help cause this is the stupidest swap ever

I agree. However, those motors were built for that purpose. An all motor set up that was never intended for boost would not hold up IMO which is what it sounds like this is.

You are right, They do make HUGE HP, but not as a functional daily driver, those kinda cars are strictly Drag.

Who can afford to buy 115 octane gas everyday to be able to drive it as a daily.

And as far as the ZC goes, ZC's are not bad but damn sure were not meant to be in an EK, the motor in an EK will be sluggish b/c of the difference in weight between the EF's and the EK's.

Yeah, I would go with some kind of Vtec motor for the EK, especially if its the HB, because even the DX's are wired for Vtec, it would damn sure be easier than getting that to work.

But good luck........some people just gotta live to learn.
