    Default Turbo manifold question!

    Ok, I have CX headers and I heard that you can use the upper part as a Turbo mani? Is this true and if so what turbo could bolt right up to it? I'm looking and praying that a t25 will? Also does anyone know someone that can do custom turbo piping for a 93 civic hatch?

    You would most likely need some form of an adapter to go from the header to the turbo. In theory any manifold could act as a turbo manifold with an adapter, it's if the turbo will fit in that location that is the issue.

    im sure you can still find an adapter plate for it. im guessing your mani is similar to an hf manifold. homemade turbo.com has alot of info on how to make your own adapter. but D engine turbo manifolds are pretty cheap now so you might as well spring for a after market manifold.
    yes i am....
