For the most part you all have caught on without this post, but there have been a few habitual offenders that forced me to say this.


Everyone will get a couple of warnings from here on out, after that I just start deleting threads.

    What size turbo

    I'm in the process of putting a turbo f2b set up together in my 98 civic coupe. Motor is a stock f22a1 with an oem rebuild and a6 intake manifold. I plan on running a obx ramhorn manifold with 3 in. downpipe and full 3 in. exhaust. I've been leaning toward a .60 intake/.63 exhaust turbo but I'm still unsure if the turbo will spool up fast enough before stock redline. I plan on running no more then 12 psi but f22a's are a dime a dozen and the boost might go up so I want a turbo that would still be able to spool fast enough but still be efficient. I'm hoping someone will chime in who has some experience with turbo f22a's.

    The only other mods the motor might see is
    -h22 plenum and throttle body on the f22a6 manifold
    -bisi cam

    What size turbo for stock f22 on 12psi?
    Would a .48 exhaust be to small?
    About what rpm would it hit full boost?


    Thanks for any help in advance.

      A turbonetics T3/T4 series won't hurt or you can even run a 20G turbo with the adapter on the OBX -r Manifold or just get a DSM OBX ramhorn Manifold and drill that extra hole and now you got yourself your own DSM Setup....but the t3/t4 is a good big turbo for the f22A big turbo=longer maybe slower spool, as for the 20G turbo smaller but quick spool....

      so basically what ever power gains you want and what ever performance you need, in the end its up to you to come up with your own turbo decision...lol

        why turbonetics? aren't they just reverse engineering garretts.
        I'd get a borg warner airwerks. for their price they put other companies to shame

          Prolly a good idea to go DSM setup with a 14b/big 16g. That is what i had before my new setup. Either turbo bolts up to the dsm mani as long as you bore the wholes out on the mani to fit the block.

            unless hes just looking for quick boost those aren't generally the best to go with. they are small and generate a lot of heat and will cause more damage than its worth
