Turbo Integra LS


Hello, I'm new to the forum, refered to it by my brother Viet.


I just turboed my 2000 Integra LS. After three attempts to get it in without major problems. First attempt turbo was rusted shut, second had major oil problem, third time is the charm.


Current Setup:


T3 60/48 Garrett turbo w/ internal wastegate, 2.25" charge piping, TurboXS BOV and boost controller, missing link, Blox FMU, ebay intercooler, gauges: boost, air/fuel, and oil pressure, golden eagle vacuum manifold and oil filter sandwich adapter.


Internal wastegate is set @ 15psi. Fuel pump cant keep up with the demands on the FMU and the turbo. After I get the downpipe made if I can find the flange at one of the exhaust shops, then I'm looking to work on my fuel management with the fuel pump being the first thing. One of the intercooler charge pipings keeps blowing off as well too, but I'm not to stressed about it. This is my first mod to my car I think I started out pretty well. Couldn't figure out how to upload pictures so I just throw in some links instead.

first mod's a turbo?  that's quite a first step.  Carbon fibre body up next? ;)  Just giving you a hard time.  Glad it went well, and welcome to the site.

The second installation I attempt to install the turbo I did use the uberdata ECU, but it was idling @ 2.5rpm's. Im gonna try it again later tommorow see how it goes. The shop is called Magic Auto Body, I'm friends with the owner he just let me use his tools and his lift. Lifts are the best invention ever made! Makes the work so much easier, no crawling around on your back or belly.

turbos are in your blood. nice to see its coming along well. take some advise from viet and dont blow it up! i'd definitely reccomend getting the uberdata working, its got so much potential.

GOOD LUCK!!
