im new to this site i just registered about 5 mins ago. im inthe middle of turboing my 1996 integra ls
what i have done so far is

-turbo manifold is on
-turbo is on
-oil lines are all on
-downpipe is on
-all the intake is on
-waste gate is on
-injectors are on just not pluged in yet waiting on new connector plugs
-vaccum block is on just nothing plugged into it yet.


what im unsure of is 34435 things, the vaccum lines going to the waste gate were do they come from. i no one goes from the turbo to the waste gate. im not sure if its the top or bottom. i belive its the bottom and then the top i beilve goes to the boost controller>?

i keep seeing some resister box? do i need that. i have an obd2 intetgra.
and whats should my fuel pressure gauge be set at?

i have done alot of reading but it gettting pissed off because i cant find anything about it. if anyone could help. ill have more questions. i can get pics if you guys would like. ask.


im gettin hondata s300 next week with hondata boost controller and map sensor. thanks guys

Connect side port of wastegate to vac/boost source on turbo compressor.
Top port of wastegate is unused (leave open) unless using a boost controller.

Resistor box depends on the kind of injectors you bought.
Low impedance / peak & hold (low ohms) injectors require a resistor box
High impedance / saturated (high ohms) injectors do not require a resistor box.

Fuel pressure should be around stock which is 43-45psi'ish.

Did you upgrade the fuel pump?

Do you have a wideband O2?

What are you doing for a basemap?

What are you doing for ignition?

When you are testing your turbo system leave the boost controller off until you are ready to power tune.

Exactly what this fella said.
please tell me that you have at least a 255lph upgraded fuel pump and bigger injectors... It won't get enough fuel and it'll shit on you and stock injectors have no flow for boosting... you could be okay for a little bit, but definitely don't wait until tuning day to decide.

sorry guys im new to this when page haha and culdnt find this post. i have bigger injectors idk what brand they are my brothers friend gave me them when i bought the car off him. he planed to turbo it soo. i do no the injectors i have are obd1 injectors. thats the only plugs that plug into them. and i do have a bigger fuel pump. im lost on how to install the boost controller. and the igntion im keeping stock. i got new cap rotor ngk wires and i got ngk plugs ibe read to get plugs that are 2 steps colder what you guys think. i just posted a post lastnight ill past it in here so you can see my update

ok guys to start off im new to the honda world. i have a nissan maxima that i been playing with for the last 4 years and just recently bought the integra. its a 1996 integra ls. got alotttt of plans for it but in time. i no alot about cars but turbo is a hole diff ball park.

ok so this is whats up i got a 1996 integra ls. it has a jdm motor from japan has 50k -60k on it.
i bought it cheap and then for another 400 bucks i got most of the turbo stuff with the car. my brothers friend was strapped for money. all the parts were brand new. idk were he got them from buttt.

what i have so far is:
-turbo manifold
-turbo
-downpipe
-wastegate(idk what brand it is)
-inner cooler
-piping
-blow off(idk what brand)
-oil cooler with oil filter relocater(came with it all so i put it on)
-oil lines for turbo
-injectors witch idk what brand they are
-AEM fuel rail
-idk what brand fuel regulator it is looks like an ebay one.(i seen alot of people with it so went with it)
-i have a vacuum block
-boost gauge
-air fuel gauge(the stock one is no longer in the car)
-have a elctric boost controller
-hondata s300
-map sensor(i got from import dps i think 4bar?)
-alos have bigger fuel pump
-oil catch can(came with it all so threw it on)

probly more but hard from off the top of my head and its pooring outside to go out.

i have most of it all on. the only things that is no one yet is the hondata s300 waiting for the jumper harness to come in. also the boost controller. i have a manual one in place right now

what im lost on is.
1. how to run the waste gate vacuum line(ive read some places that they need to come from the turbo before the throttle body to a "T" witch then goes to the bottom of the waste gate and the other half goes to the boost controller then the top of the wastegate. now i no how the waste gate works but yet wouldnt it need a vent in there somewhere if so where dose it go.
2. i have the vacuum block "Teed" off the brake booster. then i have my boost gauge ran off that and i have the blow off ran off that. i have the fuel pressure regulater vacuum line ran right off the intake manifold like the stock one. that all good there? im just lost on how it all goes dont want to mess anything up.

i got more questions but at the moment i forget till i look at the car. anyone jump in give me your point of veiw. im going to be doing a wire tuck after all this is said and done. just want to get to the tunner. sorry its so long but no one im friends with understand cars like i do so i cant talk to them about it just the internet and 99% is buls***. so let me no

btw i plan to run 13 psi for now. maybe more depends what the tunner feels safe(i no alot of cars the tunner tunes are running low 10 just throwing that out there so you see they are not jokes)

sorry so long i just wanna finish this carr. its laughing at me every day in my driveway -_-

You’re going to need to find out what injectors they are exactly. You need to know the the volume, the resistance and the dead time. So find out.

Lose the oil cooler.

You can sell the fuel rail.

You can sell the fuel regulator, use stock.

Air fuel gauge? Is it a wideband? If not lose it.

Hang on to electronic boost controller for now. Don’t hook it up until ready to tune. You don’t need the extra complication.

Are you planning to use Hondata to drive the EBC? If so you need the pwm components installed onto the ECU board.

You need to find out which MAP sensor you have. You can’t tune with an unknown MAP.

Leave the manual boost controller off too until you get everything installed and tested. You want to keep things simple for now.

Wastegate vac line should come from the turbo compressor. Most turbos have a vac fitting that you can use. Run that hose into the SIDE port of the wastegate.

It would be nice if you can find out what PSI spring is in the wastegate too.

If you want to use the vac block, T it off the brake booster. Run the boost gauge, BOV, and possible MAP sensor (depends on which kind you have). Leave the FPR on the factor vac line.

im going to find out the injectors tomrrow.

the stock fuel rail and regulator will hold up? i hear by alot of people they dont work. im not douting you just question your reason behind it. so i have a leg to stand on.

the aire fuel auge is wideband

i am using the hondata to control the boost controller.whats the pwm components. when the controller comes in ill post a pic.
the map sensor i belive its a 4 bar. i bought it at import dps told him what i was doing and he gave me it. it goes with the hondata. everything i bought goes with hondata

the wastegate. the vaccum line comes off the turbo tubing up to a TEE then one side to the wastegate(bottom) and the other side to the boost controller and then back to the wastegate(top)

There is no need for more fuel flow than the stock rail at your power level. Same with stock regulator. Running stock fuel pressure is fine and there is no need to adjust fuel pressure. OEM components are usually higher quality than most aftermarket so keep it simple where you can.

Notice the Hondata help site is very good.

thanks for the google image. it couldnt be anymore of a bigger help. everyother pic dont make no sence.

and i never went on the hondata site.. i just went to the supplyer thanks im going to look into that

sorry guys its been raingin here everyday and i dont have a gardge to work in so its hard to keep updates. buttt the ecu i got i called today to see were it is and it will be here this week. but i also talked about the stuff needed to be put in the ecu for the boost controller and the place orders them with it already.


importpdsonline.com is were i got it. they have a store in philly i went to and talked to them and they have everything. the guy knows his shit. about 43964892450 people told me about them so i went with them and im very happy. just thowing this out there

and question on spark plugs. i have read i should be using 2 sttep colder for my turbo. what plugs should i get. i always o with ngk nothin less

You want a 7 heat range resistor spark plug.
Either one of these will work, they both have the same specs.

my ecu came in today. but im still waiting on the jumper harness. but now my question is the injectors i have are obd1 injecters what brand and volume so on so on i have no idea of. my friends gave me them and said he didnt have any idea of them either he bought them so long ago. the injector clips i bought were obd1 and i had to splice them in. so for it being obd1 injectors i dont think i need the resister box?????????????????? i got the numbers off the side of the injectors they are

one side says ( INP-062 )
the other says ( NDH182 )

i have no idea even where to start to look for what kind they are.
