Nice, dsm answer to a hatchback civic. That big turbo should work good for fwd and have some insane topend. Good luck on the build? How much boost will you be running and at what rpm are you expecting full spool?

Thanks guys :) The turbo is a gt4202... I plan to stop turning up the boost when I see 700+ whp... I should see that around 31-32 LBS...

I would really like to see the turbo rolling around 6200RPMS :)
 
Those sound like pretty realistic spool times. Will you be revving past 9k? Awesome sleeper build! Domestics won't know what hit them!

Yeah, Lag wont be an issue.... In fact with how light the car is its going to help in first and second gear, Being that the car is a street car I'm probably only going to rev it to 9k... when I toss in the built tranny the car will probably see 9500 pretty often...

I just want a 150MPH trapping street car.
 
nice..... are you on mirageforums?? im in the process of doing the same swap.... what tranny do you plan on using??
 
Thats sick, I think you should send it to me. I've always wanted a colt. Have you swapped it to AWD yet? Is it a turbo colt shell or NA?

I spent forever finding a CLEAN na shell because I wanted the car to be light, which the NA over the turbo version is much lighter, as for keeping the car RIGID, it has a cage and will be good to 9.90's... The car is FWD and will stay FWD, alot less Shit to break that way... Its spaced a half inch out and running some MT's up front on a custom set of traction bars... It will hook just fine :)
