Check those out, welcome and learn to use the search function. It will teach you many things.
Turbo kits, are something most people here like to stay away from. They are costly and you are limited to what they have as far as what's included in the kit. Most of the FI guys piece thier turbos together. But my personal preferance for a kit would be the Edlebrock SOHC kit (only for the d16y8 though).
As far as the ECU, hondata and uberdata are both very good for tuning. Uberdata is much cheaper than hondata. One thing about staying N/A, you won't get much power out of a N/A SOHC.

Re: mods (_EK_)
I would either swap a b-series, or if you wanna stay d-series swap a y8 in there. there are endless amounts of turbo kits for the d-series and b-series. It all depends on your budget, if you d-series I recommend building your own kit. go to homemade turbo, they have lots of info on this, also turbod16.
