Default Turbo Hatchback help

Hello all. My dad and I are going to start a little project. We're wanting to buy a hatch shell, and put a b16 motor in it. We also are going turbo. He knows alot more than me about cars, but this is just the rough outline of what we are doing.

Anyone have any suggestions/experience? Any advice will be greatly appriciated. Please, don't be afraid to post!

my suggestion would be to do some serious research, before you dump any money into anything, the b16 is high compression, not exactly the best pick, for boost, unless your gonna put some low compression pistons in it, plus harder to tune due to having to tune for boost and vtec, I don't know what type of money you plan on sinking into the project, but ls engine might be better unless you plan on doing internals or running like 7-8 psi, let us know the money your wanting to put in it and we could help you a little more.
