[jdm95civic]

i was wodering if i could put a 4g63 mitsu.turbo on my coupe.:confused:

Probably but that would be dumb.Too much work to fab mounts and probably axles and whatever else. Swap a nice Honda motor in it.

Leave 4g's for Mitsu people to play with.

i think he is just wanting the turbo, not the engine swap

im not talking about eng. swap...just the turbo and intercooler........................

Uhhh well then why did you ask? People have been doing that for over 10 years. I have a stock galant intercooler if you want to buy it. PM me. Then find a 14b and an ebay manifold.

i had a 95 coupe and used a hf crx manifold, w/ BMC adapter plates, tuner toys oil supply/return kit w/ stealthmode fittings, and a 2g smic w/ a t25....not a hard install at all, the only thing i didnt do myself was the fabbing of the downpipe....if you start a project similar to this and have any questions feel free to pm me, ive been there done that on placement and things of that nature

ill look and see if i still have the pics of the side mount i/c and where it fit but for now this is the only one i remember having

the d15b is a jdm engine, same head as a d16z6. ive heard that these motors also like boost. with a good tune and reasonable turbo people run 10-12psi on them fairly safely.

i ran 7psi w/ the fmu at 12:1...running rich and a broke vtec solenoid which didnt work the whole time i owned the car, but on 17" rims and full interior i ran 15.8@93, but im a terrible driver, the guy i sold it to bumped up the boost to the 12psi range i think and ran in the mid to high 14's if i recall correctly (but the motor didnt last long in that range, i think he was looking for rods a few weeks later) and also you wouldve had to of seen my i/c pipes...they were like 2" pipes if that and the charge pipe coming from the turbo itself took a hard hard turn to go back across the front of the car to the other side to the side mount intercooler hidden behind the bumper...it flowed like shit, im not sure if the guy i sold it to changed them or not
