95 honda del sol turbo?

If its your daily drive then no you have to many miles on the engine.

If its going to be a toy then you may want to look into a engine swap first and then turbo charge that engine. Most honda engine swaps are straight forward and you ussually get the transmission too.

First off, do you have the Si or VTEC model? Both had a VTEc engine. The Si had the D16Y7 SOHC 125 hp VTEC engine, while the VTEC model had the B16A2 DOHC 160 hp VTEC engine. This is important because at 160K miles, you will want to do an engine swap on that car before adding a turbo to that engine. There are two easy ways that you can tell the difference in the two engines: 1. The SOHC VTEC doesn't say VTEC on the valve cover while the DOHC version does say VTEC on it.

Now for the negatives: Honda engines aren't as turbo- friendly as Toyotas because they are all aluminum. They need to be reinforced internally to handle the pressures of turbocharging. You'll need to completely rebuild the engine ( no matter which one you choose) and that on top of turbocharging could cost you easily $5K if you don't do build it yourself.

I used to have a 1990 Civic Si that I added a turbo kit to. Big, big fun but I didn't know about the B16 swap because this was back in 1992- before the swaps became common and turbos were still in their early stages. I also detonated my engine at 46K miles and ended up building it up to handle the pressures of the turbo.

Anyway, you may want to look into a B16 swap if you don't have one already or even a B18C1 Integra GSR swap. It might be just what you want at a lower cost. The turbo will give you lots more torque but it takes alot more money to get it running well and reliably. Still, if you have the desire and loot, you can have a Civic that can keep up with (or even beat) most V8s if you choose to turbo it. Just remember to have it professionally tuned and run at least 91 octane fuel as well.

Is your motor in good condition(fluids changed regularlly) it is worth it. You can always change the motor, you can score a reconditioned or even used 4-cylinder honda motor cheap.

i think sell the del sol, get a CRX and turbo charge it
