So Aaron when are you adding a turbo to your mod list? As for the larger radiator, for those of us in HOT climates, it wouldn't hurt. But hey that's opinion. I figured when I did a turbo a larger radiator was going in too.

No oil pan, for sure. The kit says it includes a fitting to replace the drain plug? I dunno, philodox posted earlier that you had to weld something, but i don't find that in my copy of the instructions.....can't wait to get started

ok, pretty sure no welding involved. There is a hose barb that looks like it would thread into the oil pan drain bung. Also, i was kicking aroudn the idea of jet hot coating the exhast manifold and "downpipe". Anyone know if this woudl be beneficial? The turbo sits right on the exhaust manifold, so i can see how maybe the lower temp might help extend the life of the turbo. But then would the heat overpower the stuff in the exhaust downstream of that. Hmmm.....also, would there be any benefit to coating any of the piping? Thanks in advance to anyone who replies.

Did anyone notice in the instructions posted on a different thread it listed out the parts included.... and the oil pan is listed. Must have been a last minute deletion from the kit.

I'm not positive the instructions I posted here are for the US kit. I received them from philodox and i believe they were an english translation of the Japanese kit. But it does say near the bottom "As of 12/30/04 this kit is not a street legal kit." so I may be wrong.
We'l find out as soon as somebody receives the kit and compares the instructions.

Greddy Kits are High Quality
At one point......before my 8, my Accord V6, and BMW M3, I had a '95 Honda Civic that I installed a Greddy Turbo kit, and front mount intercooler. It was a flawless setup. I never had a single problem from the kit. I put 105000 miles on that car and it only failed to start 1 time, but it was my fault, I had left the headlights on. I was so into that car, I actually named my dog Greddy. My parents actually still have the dog. Greddy turbo kits are a very good product. The first thing that went through my head when I pulled away from the dealership was about putting a turbo kit on. I'm glad Greddy is going to come through for me. Too bad I have a kid on the way and won't have the money for one anytime soon.
