Default turbo engine question

alright, i am sure there is a listing for this or someone has already inquired, but:

what to do if i bought a t3/t4 turbo kit for a ek 99 civic sohc coupe. then later down the road
wanted to swap the sohc for a b16b or b18c5. . . .does that turbo just go down the toilet? or
is there the option of just buying a new part to fit that particular engine so that i may keep
the turbo for the new engine? any help appreciated.

Different parts will be needed...eg: manifold, piping, etc...I would wait for the B series, and then turbo it. Save yourself the money.

i would go ahead and swap a b series first before going turbo. save you the trouble of having to buy new parts for the turbo. if you feel the b series isnt enough power, then turbo it later on
