Default noob on turbos

I'm fairly new when it comes to turbos...I want a simple turbo kit which I can use as a daily driver....I'm not trying to run 12 sec 1/4 mile passes or anything...I want something which I can afford and is reliable....I"ve been doing research and I was looking at a RevHard turbo kit...btw I have a 00 Acura Integra....with any kit I get...what other mods do I need...can I run this setup on stock internals?....(i.e. clutch, etc....)....

Solo your best advice is to search the archives! you are not the first person to ask these questions and they have been asked many many times before (probably even by me a couple times a loooooong time ago)

Rev Hard Kit
AEM EMS or Hondata, or other Fuel Management
440 or higher injectors
Ask for the upgrades with the kit, I think u need a 90 degree elbow, but I forget which kit that was, might have been Drag.
go with braid oil lines
boost gauge
Posssible new head gasket to lower compression, depending on the amount of boost you are running.

and MOST imprtant TUNING with some type of engine managment you can run 10psi safely on your stock block.

other kits you may want to check is Max Rev, http://www.swift-performance.com , Drag, also check out http://www.ks-motorsports.com

There are also other member's on this board with some very nice Turbo parts and kits but maybe overkill for your goal.

searches will also prove valuable, there are is a lot of knowledge member's on this board, with mounds of experience, and hp#'s to back it up.
