Default help on a b18b turbo set up....

I already have the b18b swap from an 94-95 integra ls, which has about 50,000 miles, into my 94 del sol right now. I'm looking to put a t3/t4 turbo kit in it, and i wasn't sure on a few things.
I know that I'm going to have to replace some parts in the engine to handle the added horsepower. I'm going to buy cam gears, pre-drilled oil pan, cam shafts, and maybe injectors. Is there any thing else i should buy, besides the boost gauge, boost controller and turbo timer? My friend was telling me to get a new ecu so it wont mess up the internals. I mean the turbo kit isn't no greddy one where it will add 100 horsepower, but then again it isn't a cheap ebay one either.

If you know anything or can help at all, i would really appreciate it.
~thanks... Dustin

Leave your head stock unless you are going for over 400whp. Leave the ECU to the tuner, then can chip it and program it. Just buy the complete kit and have it installed.

Injectors yes, the rest of the stuff, no. Its all up to you. Im in the process of doing a 400whp or so B18b1-T build and the only thing I am doing to the head is a valve job, valves, springs, and retainers. And you said its not going to add 100 hp, putting you at 240hp or so. 240hp can be had on stock internals, shoot, 270whp plus has been done on stock internals. There is a thread in the FI forum that has WHP marks on stock setups for B16's, B18c's, H22's, B18b1's etc etc. Try and find it, its a good read
