Putting an turbo onto an B18B... Nothing new.
I this whated to ask one thing about this. If I put a turbo on to an STOCK B18B would it hurt the engine really bad or can it take it?

I have 10k miles on a bone stock b18b, runs good. Just be prepared for a few problems along the way, but most importantly get a good tune!

Re: Putting an turbo onto an B18B... Nothing new.
depends on the turbo and how much your boosting as well as your tune. keep it conservative and get a good tune and like everyone else said, you'll be fine.

I have a garrett t3. 42/48 and I must say that this is a cheap, great all around turbo for a stock low hp setup. I'm 240whp with it and it starts spooling around 3k and hits full boost right before 4k.

You should paragraph it and type correctly lol.
Back to the question.
Like everyone said. A good turbo like a T3/T4 + a good tune. With stock internals you can make about 8-12psi safe.

low boost is your friend with stock internals. 
and like everyone else said, a good tune will make it all worth while, do a little research in the fi forums.
