Default is now part of the F/I club

well sort of,i got a rev hard turbo kit 2nd hand from a guy that ran a s2k lump in a civic. its got everything apart from the ecu witch i already have a aem F/IC but was thinking of going to a aem ems for this project,there is a few little problems that need to be sort like the turbo(gt35r i was told ) needs a recon and the oil in/return isn't there.
Apart from that quite chuffed with it i paid £1500 for the kit he claimed 400+ from the kit but i carnt see that happening but we will see,i plan on fitting over winter already for next year.

GT35R is capable however the manifold ?

What is in the kit? Injectors/Fuel Pump/Etc?

And without a good map/tune you're going to be more worried about still being able to get 1hp from it !

ps you will need to run an EMS, the aem fic is a POS

aem ems is easy to use as plug and play, Hondata is a bit of pain as you have to change the crank sensors

you can use other ems , just down to finding the right tuner

no its totaly different engine bay buddie

we have a tight engine bay which we have a nice steering colum that goes right where this sits

the greddy kit gets away with it but i am not sure this will with the gt35r

or is it a gt28 with gt35 CHRA parts

where the colum passes and to the engine is tight to fit anything in, the USA guys who run full race, inline pro etc, even have to notch the frame with a gt35r when they run it in that posisition

the trouble is people dont do the research

there are many kits out there , they just dont fit the RHD s2000

i hope for andys sake it fits and they have used the smaller turbo housing

I have briefly seen the revhard kit on the F/I forum (US side) and I too remember it not fitting RHS S2000's.

Hope it works out okay.

If i wasnt buying my 2nd car i'd of probably blew the cash on a turbo kit, and clutch etc but cant afford to do both.
