What turbo setup would you guys recommend for the ZC? I am thinking of doing it instead of the B16 so tell me what you think. I have looked at the greddy kit for the 92-94 Civic, which I like. I heard that kit was made especially for the ZC, is that true? All opinions and websites are apperciated.

Nah, I dont want to do the B16. I have already thought about it alot. I want a fun to drive, turbocharged car. My goal is 200hp from a non VTEC engine.

Okay, I would go w/ an LS motor or a CRV motor.  ZCs are okay.  But  b series powerplants let you grow.  Besides, it will take less to make fast and put more power to the ground.

Don't know of anyone who makes a ZC specific turbo kit.  I did hear (from www.hybrid.honda-perf.org) that the Greddy single cam turbo will work on a with little modification ZC.

HondastaR is making some good points but I think the ZC is still one of the best engines for the turbo.  It already has low compression and can handle up to 200 hp without internals.  Anything over or too close though and you will snap those little pencils known as rods though.   The ZC has the lowest compression of any Honda engine there is.

thats exactly why. Low compression, and I can go up tp 200 hp with out too many internal mods.
