Turbocharging a 1996 1.4l 90bhp Civic Sedan

I have a 96 Honda Civic Sedan with 108k km's on the clock. It's got a 1.4l 90hp engine. Any guesses to how much boost it could take? It'd be epic to hit around 150 hp but I think that's pushing it. Turbo recommendations? Maybe even a kit, since I don't really have a workshop to fabricate one.

It has a D14A4/A3 European Spec. I think the engine block dimensions are the same as the D15 and D16 series? Thinking of buying a turbo kit for one of those and hoping it'll fit :P

make sure you do your research first. A turbo kit could fit well and all, but tuning (fuel management) is the make-or-break part of a turbo setup.
