Yes BUT…
You will have to make sure you don’t take any shortcuts if you want the motor to last. That means upgrading your injectors, fuel line, pump, keeping the boost conservative-no higher than 7 or 8psi (or lower depending on what motor you are doing this to, you didn’t say), a turbo timer, boost controller, boost, oil and temp. gage, the proper size exhaust and muffler, a good intercooler, a properly set bov, an oil return line and possibly an added pump, a new ecu that’s been tuned by a professional, higher quality oil and filter at every change, 91 or higher octane gas (availability varies by where you live) every time at the pump and well you get the idea.
If you do ALL of that, I promise that you won’t have to upgrade your internals. (But it’s still a good idea to anyways and then the mileage won’t matter for the motor.)
ya man put that turbo in it and feel the power that needs to get out hondas are good and can handle it
I wouldn’t do it. You’ll end up blowing up the engine. Nobody understands that untill they see their engine blown up, and then they get it.
won’t last long ….will have to a complete rebulid or replace soon.
Probable not,but I’d ask a car repair place or something before making and sudden moves.
turbo puts a lot of strain on your seals and such, and on a high milage engine it’s generally not a good idea to run high psi. if you keep it very low (4-5 psi) you may be okay, but it’s ALWAYS a good idea to rebuild an engine if you’re going to boost it.
heck yeah.. i’m thinking of putting a turbo on my 95 civic with 178k
it’ll work… espeecially if its a honda
Hondas are pretty good if you plan to put it in and have it work well… you should rebuild the bottom end also probably sleeve the cylinders walls… for the best advice ask local shops for there input since every vehicle is wheres out differently.
yes you could but you will spend a lot of money if you want your engine to last so don’t take a short cut by just adding a turbo on your engine you need to change the whole thing and your local shop will tell you what you need to do. Good luck.
