Post going turbo need some help

ok i got crx b20 vtec(gsr head) that i had in my car for a while and decided to turbo it. i came up on a nice turbo, practly free.

i know tha basics but not every thing about turbos. my concern is that it might be to big to spool or there will be to much turbo lag. the other thing is i been looking for a manifold (bottom mount divided T4) and its really hard to find one speacially a bottom mount cause the top mount manifolds that i found wont work cause the turbo is big and i would have to cut a hole in my hood to make it fit. is there some one with alot of knoledge that could help me weather or not i can use this turbo on my motor my concern.

you can check it out at

How much power are you looking to make? Are you going to be building the block?

i know all the the basic questions to have to take in mind when you want to go turbo.

im not looking to make any particular or big hp with the engine i have now. im building another motor on the side thats gonna be built for turbo but until i finish that one. i wanna run the set up (stuff) i have now. im just looking to push 8 to 10 pounds max and tune it and see what i can make and how much it can take. so for now im just gonna mess around with it but not to blow it.

im just wondering since the turbo is big there will be to much lag and my budy that has a shop to tune cars is not here to help me out right now.
