Hey everyone,

I'm new here and in the market for a GE fit within the next few months. I am piecing together a turbo kit and I am looking into my cooling options. I contacted Mishimoto to see if they were making one for the GE because their aluminum rad in my CRX worked great. The person whom I was e-mailing said they would like to put one into production but they need a car for test fitting in either the Orange County, CA or West Chester, PA area.

If any of you guys are in the area and are willing to let them use your car, they said they would compensate you with a free radiator and a discount on future parts. His e-mail address was andrew@mishimoto.com.

I look forward to talking to all of you here on the forums!

Thanks

 

oh cool!! but i dont plan to have a turbo kit installed... can i still do this? Haha

 

you need to do some more research...

turbo can not be done the traditional route.

darn integrated exhaust manifold.

 

whats an integrated exhaust manifold? never heard of it before, its not bolted to the head?

 

Nope. The head and exhaust manifold is one piece.

 

oh what?! so no aftermarket headers for the GE8s then huh

 

Not right now. Supposedly they already have turbo kits for the JDM GE8's. As well as a header. Not sure how they did it. They might have just put an adaptor to connect the turbo to the end of the OEM exhaust manifold is all I can think of.

 

thats strange lol i wonder why honda did that. that makes sense though if they have an adapter and all. kinda sucks tho.

anyways, i wonder if i can still do this mishimoto promo haha. would love to get a free radiator

 

I don't see why not... they would probably prefer it.

Yeah, I know, we were thinking rear-mount but I think that may be more of a hassle than it's worth. I'll have to poke around and see what the JDM kids did over there...
