Default will a turbo fit in a b16a crx hybrid?

What kind of problems should I expect to run into? Just in terms of getting it to fit . . .

I am currently using a HAsport kit in my EF9 and I don't see how you could fit a turbo in. The mount kit places the motor more forward which limits you to room for a turbo kit. The best thing I would do would be cutting and rewelding the mounts, I have seen this done on all the turbo ef's at the track.

I've done two, my own and another, in both I rewelded mounts, and still did not have room for a turbo. We had to use half size radiators in order to clear the turbo. One setup used a custom manifold, the other used one from a Drag kit.
