Turbo Question I Couldnt Find An Answer For

Ok, I searched for about an hour and checked all the FAQ posts and couldnt find the answer I needed so I had to start a new post, Sorry!
Anyhow, I have an 03 Civic Ex, Can someone advise me on what mods I should have done prior to adding a turbo?? All I have done is AEM V2 Intake and a Greddy EvoII Exhaust.
I would greatly appreciate it.

depending on your boost level nothing, to a total engine build. it all depends on what your running, and how well your tunned. which depends on the level you should build your engine.

iamboo is on a distinguished road
you can ditch the intake, you wont need that after you get the turbo kit. theres nothing you can get prior to being boosted other than things like internal build, clutch, flywheel, injectors, e-manage or aem ems.

The best compliment to a turbo system is a exhaust.

just slap a turbo kit on your car how it is now, run 5 psi and call it a day.

with 5 psi, you dont need anything except tuning, which is done after the turbo kit
