ok, well. .
do you know a lot about turbo's or are you kinda clueless when it comes to them,, cuz if you plan to turbo, you should have a good overview on them before you go out buy one put it on and blow your motor. .

A B16 you can push pretty far. There are SOHC monsters, but they have their limits. The b16 will also push your budget. Weigh your option and you be the judge.

Yeah, that's probably the most important part, how much extra $$ do you have to devote to this lil project?
@ OP:
Decide on three things:
1) Amount of money devoted to project (budget)
2) Access to tools/ability to install, etc.
3) HP goals?
