help on what turbo kit to buy
sup guys i have a 00 civic si with a jdm b16a swap. I'm just trying to go like 230-250 hp tops and want to buy a turbo kit. most likely a greddy. I just need some idea on what size turbo i need and will it be reliable because i heard the b16 blocks are weak. So i dont want to blow the motor. how much psi should i run without beating the engine?

Tuning is the key to a reliable turbo car. I would peice together a kit for the power you are trying to make. If im correct buy a Greddy kit they give you a E-manage and they suck.

Way back when...my first turbo kit was a PeakBoost AC Kit...standard T3/T4 comes with everything you need! Just get some injectors and some good engine mgmt and your set! 
Keep the boost low and you will have your power goal no problem!
Plus if you ever decide to you can build your motor and make more power! I made 475whp on the same standard ac kit kept power steering and everything...TRUST me you wont be dissapointed! just call Ken at Peakboost...
