I'm Running a 1993 Honda Civic DX Coupe

What is the BEST 9.0:1 compression ration engine to get that will work with the best results with a turbo?

Power goals? Budget? Compression ratio has nothing to do with it really.

stock compression is 9:4 it would spool faster with a higher compression but the higher the compression the more prone to detonation but can spool the turbo faster and sooner,but less likely u can use pump gas. lower comp u can run pump gas and lot more room for error in your tune.

I'm looking at 4-5k in parts consisting of transmission, engine, ecu, axels, shifter cables, shifter assembly, alternator, starter, clutch flywheel, intake/exhaust manifold, fuel rail, injectors, distributor, engine harness, and all the sensors. Looking at getting a complete change over and adding a turbo after i install the engine and everything.

The engine I'm looking at this H22A (http://www.hmotorsonline.com/shop/sc...age&item=30017). Would it be a good engine for a turbo or would it be counterproductive??
