Well your going to need :

exhaust manifold
all the piping
bov
wastegate
some sort of fuel managment (fmu, 255lph fuel pump)
steal braided line for the oil to the turbo
get our oil pan ready for the oil return line. (drill and weld )

That should be it. Did i forget anything?

on the back of the block, where the oil pressure sensor is. The sensor has a nipple, with one wire leading off of it. Either tee it off and keep the stock sender, or just get rid of the stock sender for the "idiot light"

Would it hurt anything to just get rid of the stock sensor? Will the oil light on the bezel be on all the time?

ur gonna need to keep the sensor, other wise why would honda put it there?
all u gotta do is get a tee thats a 1/8 male, 1/8 female, 1/8 female it sorta looks like a block of brass with the male part sticking out and 2 female holes. its simple to connect ur oil line/ sensor back onto the block. don't mess with leaving the sensor out.

good luck
peace

why not have the sensor? I kept my stock unit and instead of a T' I used a cross and $12 sunpro manual oil psi gauge. The more sensors on a turbo car the better IMHO.
