FD tt's on a civic??

since i just had to get new turbos anyway i was wondering if it would be possible to put my old twins on my roomates 99 civic? i know it sounds weird but what if we rebuilt them and just used one? this is probably a retarded question but i figured i'd ask anyway.....thanks

I'm guessing you didn't replace your turbos yourself because if you did you probably wouldn't have asked "can I just use one?" The turbos are encased together in one big piece of ****. Put them on a Civic? Sure ... after you get a custom (expensive) exhaust manifold fabricated and get (expensive) piping made. Actually, there may not be enough room in front of that motor for the twins. Have fun.

why not just buy a damn turbo kit for a civic???? you will:

a) have more power

b) have less **** to worry about

c) have more money in your pocket
