Default turbo question and size

i was at a local parts yard the other day and found a garret turbo with the exhaust manifold and all sitting in the back of a car it was stamped a/r 42 on the compressor .was wondering if this would be a good size for my 93 accord and what kind of engine manangment and injector mods would be neccesary. i know i would have to buy or make the exhaust manifold and necessary piping .wouldnt be trying to make major boost maybe 5 to 7 psi if the stock internals would hold the engine currently has 187,000 miles but it runs like a champ

it wouldnt be the best, but its still a turbo. it would fit a d16 better.

but depending on the price, id pick it up and at least try to resell it after a rebuild or something.

as far as managemnt 450cc DSM injectors and
chipped P28 for the cheapest, somewhat dependable route.

otherwise go P28 with s300
