Default 1996 Civic EX - LHT Motor and turbo package

Well, I knew I would find use for my ITR Motor , trans and turbo package.
This set up made 647whp in my Yellow ITR ( absolutely maxed out) on race gas. It was designed and built to be super efficient and reliable.
The new Civic has some needs.
It has to be reliable,Ice cold AC, get good gas mileage and be fast.

Here's some pictures of the swap:

In stock form:



126hp of fury


2.5" aluminum piping

I did indeed keep the motor, tranny and turbo for a future vehicle. I had so much time and $$ invested in it I knew it would find a new home.I forgot how fast and 500whp 96 civic runs....Just the brakes scare you...lol
