Try looking for a CR-V 9 blade turbo, it would be the same as the OEM Si turbo
Been looking for weeks. Just a couple with broken parts on them for $700.
Never saw this one. You're positive it's the same part number as an si one?
Yes. It is. That one is a 9 blade crv turbo. Some crv turbo I see have 11 blade which is basically the same as the non si civic
Yeah I seen another crv on there but they listed the part number and it was the same as ex-t so that's why I'm curious.
Yeah, you really have to see the exhaust side cause you want the 9 blade turbo. If it makes you feel better there have been some people who swapped crv turbos on their civics and it works. Also the fact a used crv turbo is less likely to be abused by some ricer in a civic si and sold his stock turbo
Lol that's a good point. Thanks for finding that. I'm about 90% sure I'm gonna pull the trigger. Do you think this will spool a lot slower? My main goal is autox
No it won’t spool super slow. It would be slightly slower than the 11 blade non si turbo but it’s hardly a difference. The 9 blade turbo will offer slightly better top end and more over all power but it would still be a mid range power turbo and will still run out of steam up top, just not as much as the 11 blade turbo
I think @Myx has a 9 blade CR-V/Si turbo on his non Si civic and made some decent gains without sacrificing noticeable amount of spool
Pics? Very interested
