you have a lot of research to do my friend.
your best website should be www.homemadeturbo.com

they have all the basic info you need to turbo any car.

well most people get DSM 450cc injectors. but if you run thoes with a stock system ...you will run rich...i would just replace the seals for now and then pick up the 450 once you are ready to turbo.....just to make sure....we have no turbo kits....everything has to be(homemade) unless you have alot of money a shop can do it.

For your car to run properly your going to need another set of 240cc injectors until you put the turbo on then you will need something bigger.

it's not just adding more fuel that will stop the engine from detonating, what engine management will you be running?

I think I have a set of stock injectior laying around... you could try those to fix the leak if you want to pick them up.

dsm 450's seem to be the popular choice for the turbo honda crowd. the dsm guys all go :eek: when they see some of the boost levels some people run and the power they get out of the 450's in a honda.

Heres a link to my turbo project and a list of parts you will need. Im using 450cc DSM injectors but to run those you need a safc, and to run the turbo without blowing the motor you also need a MSD boost timing master (BTM) and it wont hurt to get a AEM uego wideband o2 gauge. There are also other things you need like ARP head studs, custom made manifold and downpipe, ect. Good luck.

I'm not sure I just know that 240 is what they use on many of the other Honda engines used after ours. I looked and i couldn't find it in one of my manuals.
