EG B16 Turbo kit
I've decided to go turbo over all motor with my B16 in my VX hatch.
I've done some research on what kits people have used but I haven't seen what needs to be modified to work on a swapped car. For example a Greddy kit for a 99-00 Si will bolt up but what problems if any will I run into as far as running it on a obd-1 car as far as using black/blue box? Also are mounting positions close enough to make mounting the IC a fairly easy enough job or will I have to do a little fab work?
I would like to make the install as easy and straight forward as possible so that it won't have to be "rigged" to work. I plan on bolting the kit to the stock motor as of now and will run low boost levels. I'm also not set on any one kit yet. Drag, F-max, and Greddy are kits i'm looking at because they have been proven to be somewhat reliable and fairly inexpensive.
Sounds like newbie questions but I always do alot of double checking and research before I do anything especially bolting a $3000 part on a $2500 car I want to make sure I do it right so I don't have to do it twice!
Any inputs or ideas on what would be the best setup for my car would be appreciated!

The greddy kit should work, or a drag kit, or revhard. Either way you will get ALOT faster than you are now. Just know that with any kit you will probably have to do a little modifying to get it to fit properly. But dont worry, people on here can help you with the problems you encounter.
