D16Y8 swap mounts

[dswaper89]

Im in the middle of having a pretty nice y8 swaped in my 92 Si hatch, my problem is i need a motor mount kit and im finding it next to imposable to find. Its a 5 speed (cable) not hydro. No one seems to make one that i know of(am i wrong? ). what should i do?

[Richie_A_19]

Why are you puting a 6th gen motor in a 5th gen chassis using a 4th gen tranny??

[dswaper89]

because this is how i got it, do u know were i should look

[dswaper89]

if any one would like share there insight it would really help
innovative mounts makes the closest one but i have cable tranny, and its for a hydro, does this matter?

[Richie_A_19]

My advice is to find a hydro tranny... Is there a reason to use the cable??

[Dweezil]

Just sell the cable tranny and get a hydro Si one.

[si-hatch86]

just get a hydro trans. it will be better for you and alot easier. i wouldnt use the cable trans unless u had no other choice.

[dswaper89]

sweet, the 96 hydro trany is in and i got a innovative mounts kit on the way, now once i get the engine in place were shoud i look to next for some power gains. i have a cold air intake and a full exhaust system (header to muff in 2.5in piping) i was thinking AEM sprocket and pully, but over all there only going to get me 5-10hp more, is this a smart buy

[si-hatch86]

im gonna say boost and so are alot more ppl to come. what kinda of power gains are u lookin at getting?

[civic97]

boost or juice lol. but if you want to stay NA get a cam and springs/retainers and tune it.

[dswaper89]

in the begining of my build i wanted to stay N/A (because i pretty much race every were i go and dont want to blow up the mofo on the count of my lead foot) but i dont want to spent a couple G's building on a crapy 1.6 to 175 or 200, is there a stroker kit for my Y8 yet, or is my best bet to boost and juice (keep in mind i tend to race against 240's and powerful b-series)

[dswaper89]

and is it safe to slap on a turbo kit w/no head work or anything

[si-hatch86]

yes u can boost a stock engine. get a good tune and low boost and u should be ok.i would recommend getting some arp headbolts and a headgasket.

[dswaper89]

ok, would edelbrock's turbo kit for the 96 ex(my engine) w/ 5-7lb's of boost get me to a 200-250hp range

[jimmyb34]

no it wont.. i think it runs 7 psi from them and thats like 175 whp.. you can put together a 300 whp hmt kit for as much or less than what the edelbrock kit costs

[dswaper89]

so would i first need to do some head work, maybe put in a hondata and tune out all n/a first, so when i do put it in it works a little more smoothly

[dswaper89]

what is HMT (im new to imports)

[jimmyb34]

homemade kit.. basically by putting together a kit yourself buying everything seperatly..... search function is an awesome tool when looking to turbo your car...

[dswaper89]

cool, i love my 92 si hatch, i payed 26 hund and have huge plans, whats the best comp to look in to for a turbo i wont soon get tired of (by that i mean is most powerfull of all aplications)
