I did a 13.2 on a boosted sohc...that was only 10 PSI. I'm interested to see who can do better. BTW that was in a heavy ass EJ. Someone do a similar setup in a CRX or something and see what you can do. Maybe I'll boost up this DPFI for shits and giggles before I drop my B16 in.

The point I'm trying to make is that SOHC turbos are quick, easy, cheap, and reliable speed. Yes, I know that there's much faster setups out there - but for the money, you can't beat it...

You gotta admit, 13.2 ain't bad for ~$400 worth of mods on a SOHC civic.

why does every single one of your posts relate to a volvo somehow?
