I was wondering if someone could direct me in all the parts I will need to get if i were to make a turbo for my accord. Now, is it all ok if i get all my parts from junkyards and such? Or could those parts potentially hurt my engine?

altering anything can hurt your engine, especailly something called turbo.

you can find alot of STOCK turbo from many euro and domestic car.
the junkyard i went have many volvo, vw,dsm.

the best choice would be the dsm.

but there's no way you can tell will it works 100% right tho'

ok so if i found a stock turbo from a european car, would it be compatible with my accord? and how much hp gain would it give me? oh, and most important,price from junkyard?

stock turbo is small in general, unless you got a donor car from a Supra..

will it fit? you need to custom fit everything stuffs like..

manifold, downpipe, wastegate(maybe not, since most stock turbo have internal wg), charge pipe and intercooler,etc.

how much power is depends on how much boost, what internal and how good and what size is the turbo is.(plus many other boost craps)

you probably looking at 8lbs-180-195 whp

your size of turbo have alot ot do too, when you putting 8-9lbs on smaller stock turbo=3-4 lbs on bigger aftermarket turbo.
