Just get a junkyard DSM log mani

That way you know it fits(after a little drilling)and won't crack.

unless it is already cracked...i'd magnaflux one just for safety.

Agreed with Wed. I've seen them crack. Good to have them checked.

Good choice in going H22.

everyone says the ebay turbokits are shitty.. but its not even that.. its just their attention to detail is almost zero..

ive personally installed that manifold on a 4dr cb7 .. and the manifold is working out great.. only real problem is the Clearance Issues if u retain both rad and ac fan. ac fan is in the way..

anyhow.. same thing goes for ebay kits.. its the little shit thats overlooked..


bovs having dual springs (thus not opening)
wgs having 1bar springs thus overboosting
turbos needing oil restrictors for them to last more than a few months

u do get what u pay for.. but from first hand experience.. for someone who knows how to tinker and make shit work.. their not that bad..

[chopshoptuner]

be very very careful with ebay kits my buddy put one on his crx with b16 swap and the turbo seized and trashed the motor not that im saying dont buy one just be careful hate to see anyone else have to go through that

[ExplodingCake]

Glued-on turbo kits FTW!!

x2 lol nah go h22a! its a better investment.

[UrbanEpidemik]

There's nothing like driving a boosted car, but there's also nothing like having a reliable motor like a H22. Definatly better off with the h22.

[Gotz Cb7]

Yea, without puttin' a little bit of money into the f22a, you're not gonna be able to run too much boost anyway without a problem eventually. Probably get a little over 200 horses, so why not just go h22 that'll last a lot longer with that much power, throw an intake and exhaust on it. I made the mistake, and got another f22 put in my car, and had Turbo on mind. Yea, 1500 dollars, and I shoulda kept my other engine. It drove better with a blown head gasket and cracked block, than this one. I'm puttin' money into my h22 fund here shortly. I just figure I'll try to get my gas mileage back on this engine, so when I pull it, I can give it to someone who would wanna go through the hassle with it. Tryna boost this engine, without replacing the problems with it...yea, it'd have a pretty bad outcome.
