Default turboing a 91 hatchback sohc vtec

i got a 91 si/ sohc vtec. im gonna attempt to put a big holset turbo in it but i notice how theres like no room......do i use a liquid cooled intercooler to make the manifold/ tirbo fit because that seems to be my only option....just wonder your thoughts/ opinions

first off get a 92-95 civic radiator and you should have anough room to do whatever...if someone can sqeeze a k24 turbo in a crx you can fit a single cam turbo in your hatch

Search, it's not that hard depending if the turbo is like "that" big you might need some fab work but a dual core rad and X member free up a ton of room.

You could also... measure things and see what needs to be done.
