Looking to turbo, and I need help.

Looking to turbo, and I need help.
Ok, here goes.
I am still pretty new to the tuner world, and I need some help with the next mod I would like to do. I would like to turbo my car, but I am going to need quite a few questions answered first.
I have a '95 Civic DX, with a b16a2 swap. I don't know exactly how many miles are on the the engine, as the former owner didn't know, and the gauge cluster has been replaced, so we just have no idea.
I've got a few specific parameters that I am looking to have on this mod, so I'll try to list them here.
I would greatly appreciate it if anybody could shoot some websites my way, the kind that would go over all the technical aspects to the build. ALL the parts that are going to be needed, and that sort of thing. Thanks.

- I don't need too much extra power, thinking maybe about 200 horse power or so.
- A big thing is that I want to have a system that will be compatabile with A/C. I live in Florida, and A/C is pretty much required.
- I would hope to keep the project down to about 1000 - 1500$ don't want to break the bank too much with this. ( Is this practical? And if not, whats a good figure? )

Re: Looking to turbo, and I need help.
the forced induction faq's have most of the answers you are looking for.
your power goals are realistic, your budget? may be a little light UNLESS, you source your parts well and maybe take a chance on some used but quality parts.
