He did the rebuild of my Renesis, & does great work.

The RE-Amemiya kit is essentially the greddy turbo, with some swapped out parts... made for AT.

Its pricey, but you may want to look into that.

I think Rick has done it for others too. There is a thread in the auto section somewhere.

I know people have put the Greddy Turbo but i was wondering if that used a diffrent fuel manage. Or if that did anytype of change to there engine like add 2 fuel injectors. I would like to get a turbo kit and im willing to spend 4000 on it but as of now it looks like it might cost 6000 and that just to much im not made outta money.

do you realize how much a conversion would cost? Several thousand $, like 3 or 4 greddy kits worth, if you're lucky.

what's weird about it, people supercharge and turbocharge 1960's OHV I4s, is that weird too? Turbo Civics....hmm weird...

-----------------------------------

On topic:

You could use the MT Greddy kit, but you'll need bigger primary injectors and obviously tuning. Search the AT specific forum and you'll find the thread by Rick (apex8 is his screen name I believe), not much info there, but you could always contact him for help I guess.
