you wanna leave stock compression? Just put in an oem honda gasket, go ahead and clean the carbon off of the pistons and get a valve job while the head is off. Maybe even some p & p work. I'd install some arp head studs aswell. I'd get a t3/t4 turbo with like .43/.57 trim for the street. Invest in some 550 injectors, your choice of uberdata/hondata/whatever and a 255lph in tank fuel pump. For the love of pete don't skimp out on tunning. I'd also get at least 2-1/2 exhaust tubing and go ahead and install a new fuel pump and timing belt. Along with a good tune up and a cooler set of plugs you should be close with the exception of all the other goodies like fmic, piping, bov, w.g., turbo manifold, and boost controller. I personally like dual stage manual boost controllers like turbo smart or turbo xs. Dont forget that a oil pressure gauge and a boost gauge is a must and don't buy a crappy a/f ratio gauge, spend the extra 300 and buy a real plx wide ban. It looks sweet and it's good insurance. If your car begins to run lean, kill her right there.

the stock compression is fine with something like 5-9psi of boost and it'll be pretty quick, if i were you and not looking for serious power, get a smaller turbo so it spools faster it'll have a better powerband, just make sure to get one that will be able to pull all the way to redline . Also along the lines of a boost controller i would defiantly get an electronic one, it will help with boost spikes, boost creep, and spool time
