I've see a 98 civic w/ a greddy turbo kit thats for the 92-95 civics. my question is would it work on my 99 civic ex?! the only difference i can see off the bat is the turbos. 92-95 is a 15g and 96-00 is a 19t. whats the differences and does it matter? which turbo is better? will it still be bolt-on and will the FMIC bolt up too?


thank you!!

 

[jimmyb34]

yes it will work.. but the turbo for the 96+ is a bit bigger...

 

[naterpatater77]

only thing is the 15g maxes out at around 300whp and the 19t is a tad higher both excelent kits

 

[naterpatater77]

go with the 92-95 its cheaper then you arent limited to what injector size you have

 

[ej8d16y8]

so no mounting problems? thats perfect its a lot cheaper so I go boost sooner =) . then ill have to buy the 92-95 FMIC or can i get the 96-00 FMIC?

15G can't do 300WHP unless you spray ..

It will bolt right up. Only difference is besides a little bigger turbo and downpipe is the 19t kit comes with injectors. But bigger injectors you can pic up cheap same with a fmic.

I have to disagree with you on that...

I'm open .. show me what you're reffering to, cause the most I've seen is 305WHP but on 19T kit. 15G maxes out at about 280WHP

yep.

The tune will be a bit different too, but the stock EManage map sucks so much that you'll want to retune it anyways

yeah, it'll work but if its got the blue box still, the wiring is different. even compared to 96-98 it's different.

So im going to have a hard time hookin the emanage b/c of the harness?

 

[stackz]

no, I'm sure there's a write-up somewhere of how to do it that makes it easy.

even if not, all you gotta do is swing by the local honda dealer and get one of the tech guys to print you out the ecu pinout and then just follow the e-manage instructions.

Ive seen a guy max out his dsm t25 at 280hp on 20psi on a single cam, the 15g is bigger then the dsm t25 so I would say it will hold more power then 280...

 

[dragman99]

the pinouts are either in the archives here, or on honda tech. search and you'll find them.

no sir, those are about the same size

both turbos after 15psi push prety hot air, so unless an ice/water-to-air intercooler is used, I don't see 300WHP happening on the 15G. And I've never seen an intercooler like that with turbo like that.

 

[dragman99]

i keep this in my pic file. i was at work earlier or would have posted it.

A 15g is bigger than a dsm t25, I know that for a fact because my friend Justin has both of them at his house and I saw them both. Also you can hit 300hp on a 15g pushing higher boost levels, what are you talking about with the intercooler like that with a turbo like that?

You'll never hit 300 HP with a 15G, ever! It takes 497.5cfm to make 300CHP, as you can see a 15G wheel chokes at ~440cfm around 2.1 bar absolute pressure, or 16.1 PSI coming out of the turbo. Realisticly your going to get ~425cfm at 2.4 bar absolute pressure from a 15G. A little physics and math means that realisticly a 15G max's out at ~260 crank horsepower, and that's it.

X2. The emanage splices into the same sensors the pins are just in different areas. Just look at your ecu pinouts for your year car. The ones greddy sent me were for the right year and car but they made a mistake on one of there connections they had it going to the wrong pin. So just double check when ya do it.
