Re: Turbo 96 civic DX (xbladr)
turboing an SOHC is not a waste of money. I have a friend who has a turboed D16Y8 (ex sohc vtec), and also a friend with a turboed D15Y5 (vtec-e), both run about 6-7 PSI on stock internals and run mid 14's. 
I'm not sure on what WHP they have, but I'd assume it'd be about 180-190ish at the wheels running mid 14's.
