Alright so my buddies got a 99 civic si and just bought this kit off ebay.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/T3-T4...04804494QQrdZ1

We will be installing this kit ourselves and were wondering if TR had any suggestions on what else we are goin to need to complete this kit?? We just plan on installing everything and then having someone else do the tuning. I know were def. goin to need the oil lines to and from the turbo (no big deal). Now what im not sure about is what all he'll need for fuel. He's only goin to be running about 6-8psi with all stock internals. So will he be able to get away with stock injectors and fuel pump or will he need to uprade? Been seeing alot of people using the DSM 450cc injectors but havnt heard any real solid reveiws. We havnt started the kit yet but will be sometime next week. Hopefully we will be able to keep the A.C. but I dont know because it looks like a very close fit. Also , how does the vtec and turbo mix do with one another? Ill keep everyone posted with pics comming soon and anyone with knowledge of boosting a b16 would be very helpfull. Thanks, JT

 

I doubt that kit will clear a/c.
http://phearable.net/tech/efibeginnerguide.html is a good intro for you guys to read.

 

im not a huge fan of that kit. major components have been known to break for no apparent reason other than poor design. not saying itll happen to you but id keep a look out. check out the site john (mtber) gave you itll help wuite a bit

 

Ok thanks guys. Just bought an Apexi turbo timer, vortec FMU and 55cc injectors tonight. Hopefully all go's well. Getting the walbro 255 in tank fual pump, aem fuel pressure reg. and some gauges tomarrow. Pics of kit before and after up soon as we get everything

 

The fmu is not something you will want to be using.

Like 99b16si said, the turbos & turbo manifolds on ebay kits will fail over time.

 

buy a good kit, dont down a good car with a cheapo

 

I wouldnt use a ebay mbc or bov...

just throwing that out there

 

I've heard bad things about ebay manifolds.

 

Just remember you get what you pay for..there is a reason why "name brand" is more expensive..

 

Fitment issues you will run into. Buy a kit made for the car. This is one of those "honda" turbo kits, not a 1999-00 Civic Si. You get what you pay for, IMO.
