with the hassle and things that could happen with a turbo, your best bet is a swap. a turbo for a d16 motor will give you a little more output than a b16 for more money.
hey if you wanna boost your sohc motor go for it.
DRAG and greddy make kits for it.

ok,
but to rip out the motor and replace, will I be able to keep everything else stock?
will a say, b18c1 hook right up to the auto tranny, and the motor mounts?
will the chip work?
it really sounds like a-lot of work to change out a motor?

Your tranny won't work on a b18C. U have to change everything out and do an auto to manual conversion.

I just turboed my D16Z6 with Y8 head.

Let me tell you, if you have a hatch you'll be spanking NA cars.

You'll be more than happy.

I'm sure you can do the same in a Delsol.

most places will sell you an entire swap meaning its just a matter of yanking and replacing with the new parts
it is alot of work but well worth it.
its not as hard as it sounds.
