I have the prl kit on my 8th gen since they first came out. I switch from my greddy kit to prl and never looked back. Prl is the best turbo kit for a 8th gen
Love the build dude, I want to do a sidewinder on my fg2 so bad. Are you stock internals? I’m at 125k miles and don’t know if it could hold 8psi reliably
@@Dyllon_vendetta thanks for the fast reply man, I’m considering piecing together a kit using cx racing sidewinder and they’re down pipe, then going eBay for the rest. Is it worth it to go cheap or would it be best to maybe go bottom mount like prl, to not cook my engine bay 😂
If your thinking about doing half cx racing and half eBay I would just say do full cxracing It’ll be better then eBay not as good quality as prl but I’m year strong December so I think it’s worth it over eBay They have the full kit for a pretty decent price to
@@Dyllon_vendetta yea that’s why I want to go sidewinder. They look amazing, and I don’t think it would be too bad going full cx racing and only running 8psi max. Your engine bay is insane man, I hope to be there someday but college is limiting me 😂
What kind of BOV you said you got? I just bought this kit about a month ago and right now we have the motor out because we wanted to do the timing on it, and fix a few leaks. Sick Si too bro🔥🔥
Aye bro quick question you think this kit is just as good as durability wise as full race, prl or a kraftwerks kit etc... and u probably don’t know but I have fg2 with a k24a2 in it..you think I will need a custom kit ?
Stock everything yea And that is true I’m just getting a little lucky I guess lol And 300 should be fine all motor or even boosted 400 up with the torque is what kills the trans
Depending how yu do it can be 3k to 4500 ish Mine was a little more then the 4 ish mark I believe just depends how much you wanna replace and swap out and add
@@Dyllon_vendetta so should I just buy a prl kit or this kit, my problem is I suck at saving money and I’m very impatient, I want a turbo kit, and I’d love to take my time slowly upgrading it and learning about it. So what do you think
If you have the money buy the prl this is just budget friendly You will learn on this kit because you will switch some things out as tike goes on or if you switch it out in the beginning it’ll still be cheaper then a prl
@@Dyllon_vendetta bet, budget kit it is, I’ll be easy on it for now and upgrade the blow off and waste gate and upgrade turbo etc over time. I have a k24
Bro paint the car, looks like Ronald McDonald has a boosted civic
Atleast he boosted lol 😂
yeah, I completely agree man. PRL is the way to go. the amount of money I've spent should've saved up for prl
Lol wish I knew instead of being cheap lol 😂 but the sidewinder looks better lol
@@Dyllon_vendetta lol cant argue with that. It does look a lot better. If only it didn't toast the engine bay XD
I have the prl kit on my 8th gen since they first came out. I switch from my greddy kit to prl and never looked back. Prl is the best turbo kit for a 8th gen
Just what i was looking for
Glad to help

Thank you 🙏🏽
And I am stock and 8 is perfect for reliable
It’ll be decent on your trans to everyone I know is 12 psi and up in at 15 right now

Prl bottom mount I’ve heard is more efficient so can’t go wrong there
I did mine for the look also

Also is it a bolt on?
Thank you and tial 50 mm it wasn’t bolt on had to weld it
And good luck with the kit 💪🏽
You better run coolant to ur turbo. I didn’t run mine and it burnt out. Do it and save the money
At first I didn’t know how to tap it I know now lol still haven’t done it but your right I should look into it
Aye bro quick question you think this kit is just as good as durability wise as full race, prl or a kraftwerks kit etc... and u probably don’t know but I have fg2 with a k24a2 in it..you think I will need a custom kit ?
I would assume this kit isn’t as durable because of the price lol
You’ll probably need to modify your piping not sure what else
@@Dyllon_vendetta idk if u said in the video but how much power to the wheels ? And if u haven’t been on the dyno what u think just an average
E dyno 430
@@Dyllon_vendetta thank you...subscribed bro
I see you changed the upper coolant housing which one did you get and does it come with all the adapters/fittings
Did u have boost creep issues ? Im being told i need to make the manifold for tge wastegate a vband and use a 44mm wastwgate
I’ve been told that and yes that’s the safe option I’ve been on so far personally but I have heard about this a lot
How many miles one the engine ?
132
timeout, where did you get that engine bay trim?? or did you paint it yourself? shit is 🙌😍
Had them hydro dipped
@@Dyllon_vendetta bro….. where can i get that done hahaha 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
I had someone local do it google to see if you have anyone local in your area
Stock gears? Most people tell me if you go above 300whp your gears will just burst
Stock everything yea
And that is true I’m just getting a little lucky I guess lol
And 300 should be fine all motor or even boosted
400 up with the torque is what kills the trans
@@Dyllon_vendettayeaaaa wanna be able to do 400 wheel lol but it just takes a lot more effort and money to make that jump without risking it all
Beat on it but beat on it gently lol 😂 that’s how I am unless I’m actually getting on it
Is this the$1,200 or $2,200 CX kit? Cuz I guess they have a thick wall version
It was the thick wall version
@@Dyllon_vendetta okay sweet thank you.
What clutch are you running?

Are you saying hmmm or mm measurements lol
lets get the 19si vs 08si going papi
Lol I was gonna say let’s do it last week but the rain messed it up plus the car at the body shop but I’m ready when it’s out
How much did it all cost
Depending how yu do it can be 3k to 4500 ish
Mine was a little more then the 4 ish mark I believe just depends how much you wanna replace and swap out and add
hey man i want to get this kit but i want to use different turbos, what wastegate would you recommend
Tial 2 bolt fits
