2006 Honda Civic Si Turbo Kit

civicsiturbo_1.jpg

The boys at Cybernation Motorsports (an American company) have developed a forced induction kit for the 2006 Honda Civic Si. The 2006 Honda Civic Si is basically a USDM version Honda Civic with a K20Z3 engine instead of the K20A3 and R18A1 we get here in Malaysia. The K20Z3 is a high-compression, high-revving version of the K20 engine family equipped with the a performance i-VTEC system, unlike the K20A3’s i-VTEC cam setup which is tuned more towards economy. Some enthusiasts have argued that the economy-oriented i-VTEC cam setup should be called i-VTEC-E instead.

In stock form the 2006 Honda Civic Si’s K20Z3 engine makes 197hp at 7,800rpm and 189Nm of torque at 6,200rpm. It had a redline of 8,300rpm. Cybernation Motorsports have added a plug and play forced induction kit using a Turbonetics turbocharger and an intercooler to the setup. Of course, there are other components in the kit necessary to turbocharge an engine designer for normally aspirated like a standalone injection controller. Boost is set at 0.75 bar or 11psi. Currently there’s no dyno figures yet, but the car sure looks and sounds good.

    Installation looks neat and tidy. 0.75bar is pretty high for a plug and play turbo-charging system which is awesome. Like to know more about it.

    I've updated the post with a video of the car's insides. Notice Honda gave the Civic Si a shiftlight at the upper Multiplex deck.

    It's a damn shame Malaysia doesn't get these kind of Civic SI's. They are actually pretty good looking. We're stuck here with the boring economy models. Ford! please bring in the Focus ST, the Ghia is really boring.

    Actually Paul, unless this car was changed from the American version, it's redline is actually 8300RPM ;)

    My shift light blinks at 8000 but goes solid at 8300RPM. I dunno if any of you have driven this car yet, but lemme tell you, this car is very nice. I love mine :) (from the US :) ). There's another turbo'd Si here but nobody has one just yet because the fuel system is a bit difficult. It's wired into the security system. I dunno if it's like that for you guys and gals over in Malaysia though, but maybe.
