yeah id like to do it, i just need a job, and then money, and then someone to install it because im not talented enough to do it myself
but if i had all that, i'd do it.
it'd supposedly make my car faster than the si...

FG2uner · 07-24-2008, 08:53 PM

haha barely

GReddyEX · 07-24-2008, 08:58 PM

yeah i know
the info made some outlandish claims like
faster than the si
at least 220 horsepower
and also about as fast as a 2006 BMW M3 (E46) with performance chip and exhaust
thats kinda what made me go :/

InfamousN · 07-24-2008, 09:08 PM

^if you're talking about the tsi turbo kit... it would hover around stock si range. cause we r18's aren't gonna get much of a boost. simple as that. =/ however hypothetically speaking if you had a lotta time and resources on your hands.. could be more.

GReddyEX · 07-24-2008, 09:13 PM

well the one i was reading about was the one on procivic.com, the Turbo Specialties R18 Extreme Turbo Kit
the video made it seem a bit weak though

GReddyEX · 07-24-2008, 09:16 PM

i dont think thats the same one
probably not
although i havent found another turbo kit for the R18

InfamousN · 07-24-2008, 09:17 PM

i think it is the same one.. however let me do some searching on here before i say definitely.

GReddyEX · 07-24-2008, 09:24 PM

ok
heres the link to the vid if anyone cares to watch
YouTube - Honda Civic R18 Turbo Video
beware, the beginning is pretty cheesy
