Ive had my civic for about a year now. Its in mint condition and my dads (mechanic) been working on it since it was new and it only has 115xxx miles.

Im thinking of installing a turbo and was seeking some help for parts. I dont want anything high end as Im not racing and Im only really after some horsepower and blow off valve =P.

What parts do I need to get myself started? I heard stay away from ebay turbos. And what psi do you recommend running to keep mostly stock internals?

If you're going the extra step into getting a turbo then why would you cheap out? I don't see anything good coming from a cheap turbo setup, imo it wouldn't be worth the time, money, and effort.

I'd look into buying someone's used kit if your trying to save money (it's tried and tested, just bolt it up). Piecing together a kit will be a lot more work and cost more.
