Icon2 New to the honda game

So, I've worked on cars for a while, but just recently got into the honda game, purchased a 91 EF hatch, SI. Has a motor swap, the ZC motor, was told its the "frankenstein" of hondas, a dual cam head on a single cam block. I don't quite understand it, but I've been told it's a pretty decent motor. Basically I was wondering, what you guys would do to build it up it since you're all going to know more about honda's than I do. I plan on getting a turbo for it, any specific brand or size turbo that would run well with it? Also, curious as to what parts will bolt up to the block, i was told D series since its a single cam block? Not sure about that one though. Was also curious as to whether there is any way that the motor could be made to run VTEC? Any and all responses welcome! thanks

ZC motors cannot run VTEC setup sorry...but boosting the ZC is a very common thing. t3/t4 garrett turbos are the most common setups. just get the full bolt ons. intake, header, exhaust. later get a new clutch/flywheel, throttlebody spacers, just junk like that.
