    dont be a typical honda guy and put a giant turbo on your car that you don't need and will never take advantage of the output the turbo has to offer. i would go w/ a T25 of a 2g eclipse..i'm running one on my 2.2 L f22b2 and it spools really fast (full boost by 2500-3000 rpm) and has great low end torque (240 ft lbs at 3500 rpm) but of course you won't make near that amount of torque on a D16, and it will have more of a topend on your car than on mine. every honda guy i ask what turbo they went w/ they are like oh i got a 60 trim t3/t4 or something gigantic.

    trust me, i do not want a t3/t4, just seems stupid to me to have something that big.
    I was thinking about a t25 as well, but ive heard they run out of steam up top even tho thats not that big of a deal for me cuz i like the low end torque id get out of it.
    I was also looking at a tdo4l 13t turbo off of a wrx, which sounds like it would work really well, i just havnt seen as many of them done as the others.

    First of all maybe you should rephrase the TYPICAL HONGA GUY COMMENT!!!
    What is a typical honda guy? One that can afford to build a fast car and builds a honda accord that mommy and daddy gave them. There are many D series out there runnit bigger turbos than a penis size T25 and runnig 325hp.It just depends on what our goals are. I run a t3/t67 on a gsr motor and yes it has some lag too it but its worth it to be able to dyno 526 on 21psi! instead of maxing a t25 and 20 psi and only make 200hp!! So from one typical honda guy to another do some research on www.honda-tech.com,instead of asking a moron with a show car, that probly put it on there too win points at a show!!!!

    ok well my mommy and daddy didn't give me my honda accord..and i am a member on honda tech and an avid poster on honda-tech in the accord forum one of the few boosted accords there. my username is the same on there as here. i have posting on honda-tech for quite a while...a T3/T4 is was too big of a turbo for a daily driven D16...i could understand that on a built d16 or a GSR motor or something like that...he would benefit way more from a T25 on that car than a t3/t4 i'm sure he doesn't want a dyno queen he just wants something fun to drive...do you wanna see pictures of my car...mine is way far from a show car, i don't have a body kit, i dont have one bit of rice on my car at all....http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1109750
    there you go theres some pics...my car is slow as balls i will be the first to admit it, but im tired of seeing guys w/ stock honda civics putting gigantic turbos on their cars and only running 6-8psi of boost, that will never be able to benefit from the power it has to offer. i have seen your car dyno before 680hp..im impressed but why dont you do some searching before you tell me to search on honda-tech. im planning on upgrading the turbo on my car once i finish building another motor but for now the T25 is fine on my car daily driven w/ 155k miles, its fun to drive and pretty reliable despite the fact its a turbo honda. this guy was asking for a good turbo for a daily driver not trying to break any records. hondas will never be the fastest cars...no matter how fast you make it, it still front wheel drive and an economy car at heart..you always have to remember that.

    his car never made 680hp, lol. Honda's can be fast, fwd's can be fast look at lis kubo's FWD Saturn.... its a commuter turned drag car.

    I know what you you're saying about guys running huge turbos and only pushing 8psi... its just a waste. But just because its stock doesnt mean it can not withstand alot of power.

    If the origianl poster wants something "FUN" on the street, nothing is more fun than a 300whp civic. Not only that, if he wants real quick response and only what 8psi, then he might as well get a supercharger. One of my friends have a supercharged d16z and it was run, felt like a h22 hatch less the topend power. turbo is best if you get one with good topend, but if you want lowend, i say get a bigger motor or supercharge for off idle power.
    94 Supra= 500rwhp
