D series Q?
 

O.k. please do not turn this into d vs. anyseries just have a quick Q? and I read about 28 pages of that...

I have 2003 ex D17A2, A local ricer shop says the oil pumps are crappy in these, He really didnt get techy on me but they are leet so I trust them, If I decide to turbo mine is there a better pump that will fit?
do I have to worry...

I allready plan to change the the head gasket to greddys, and other internals that arent to costly but, any help from you guys would greatly appreciated:cool:

i'm sure at stock boost the oil pump is the least of your problems.....

just make sure your oil is never low and you should be fine. supposedly honda switched to a lesser flowing oil pump w/ the 96 and later model civics.

I know @ stock boost its fine... Im saying if I add boost up 8psi. thanks AZ thats kinda what I was looking for.

at 8psi it shouldn't be a problem, start worrying when you ccrank it up to 15psi, at the time you would need new internals and if you can afford new internals i don't see why you wouldn't change your pump...(if you even need to)

yea, I had read that with my motor anything above 8 might cuase a problem, and I say that cuase its an everyday driver. Again I dont know much about turbo 101. Im 31 and have spent the last 12 years in car audio installation, and networking. I appreciate all the help I get, if you dont mind im gunna add to my buddy list so I can follow some of your posts...

no problemo we are all here to help each other out, if you didn't know already "thermal" is one of hst's turbo guru, he is always willing to help...:thumbsup:

yea thats what I have been reading about him. Cool, see ya
