Default How to turbo a D15B

About a half a year ago I bought a 1998 Ex/Si clone with a D15B swap. The only mods it has that I know of is an intake and exhaust. The engine has about 70k miles on it and its running strong as fat as I can tell. Vtech kicks in pretty good. My mechanic seems to think its a DOHC vtech but I don't see how that's possible with a D15B... Anyway, what I would like to know is what supporting mods I would need to boost it maybe 6 - 10 pounds of boost and how much it would set me back including professional tuning. My goal is to have a fun, reliable, and decently quick daily driver. Before you guys just say google it I did try that. Google came up with like 50 different options and opinions about it so I decided to ask around here because its seems there are some very experienced people here. So what do you guys think?

Get a new Mechanic!!

Psi means nothing!!!

1- Set power goals.
2- Car use, Daily, autocross, etc.
3- Budget.

You can get the parts separately and made your own kit or get a Reputable bolt on kit.

And start from there.
