Turbo advice for 03 Civic

I have a 03 Civic Lx sedan and will be doing a Vtec head swap at some point, with that said I was wondering what would be a good turbo to put in it and where I could buy it, at the moment i currently have a K&N Short Ram and a full MagnaFlow exhaust system, Thanks.

Re: Turbo advice for 03 Civic

You could spend a lot of money on a turbo built by a tuning company, but If you are just looking for a light build you could also start with an oem turbo from a similar sized engine but from another company. Maybe something off a 1.8-2.0L VW or audi, those you can get at the scrap yard for far less then buying a new turbo from an aftermarket company.
