turbo install
I am really intersted in buying a turbo kit for my 02 civic ex 2dr but there are a few concerns i have. how much boost can i run on stock internals? how hard will the install be? and is it worth it to buy a turbo or go for the k20a2 swap?

IMO if you got the cash, go k20 then turbo. You'll give vettes a run for their money.
