I was looking at your post about enlarging the wastegate, I've never done this, and have a 2 1/4" exhaust right off the turbo. I notice when it's under boost it's sitting at 14-15psi.. do you think this would cause the melt down?

poor acceleration..

It started last year on our trip back from California, Twyla filled up her conv civic, (Turbo II swap) and it would run good in the lower gears (1-3) but if you tried to accelerate in 4th or 5th, the temp would climb, the boost would sit at 12psi, the rpms would increase slowly, but it seemed like t...

thanks for the replies.. the shop is trying to see if the crank is salvagable, I'm hoping so.. then the only things required will be the rebuild kits again(and a new oil pump) any luck on finding a part # bigelboe?

Re: piston rings

From what Honda NZ told me, there is 3 different pistons, the non-turbo and 2 turbo's they all have a 66mm bore, but the turbo uses a different size ring set.
non turbo 1.5/1.5/4.0mm and the turbo's 1.2/1.2/2.8mm

Re: piston rings

Well, I finally talked to someone at Grant that know's what he is doing, he put together the right set of rings, and the motor is now going back together. He will inform Segdin of the wrong listing for the ring and have them create a new part # for the turbo rings  :)

Re: piston rings

that's excellent  :) It would probably be easier for me to directly order them from Florida (I live in Canada) I've found the site that makes them, but I can't find the part# on the site (the page is down :( ) do you have the part # ?
