don't just think website. think of what you want out of a turbo kit, and the budget that you have to do it. Don't be afraid to make phone calls and e-mails to contact other vendors that kits available. The world is beyond turbo kits . com

Spoolin Performance
RC Autowerks
AFI Turbo (Arizona Forced Inductions)
Straight Line Specialties (SLS)

the list goes on.

Check out the vendors here and other people with what they use and make some comparisons

you dont have to buy everything from one vendor. spread the wealth a little. this is how i broke down the turboing my car. make sure you get the manifold, downpipe, and dumptube all from the same person in a kit for what ever turbo you use.(this is where i failed to do, will not happen again). then i would worry about how are you gonna fuel and tune it get all this stuff from the same person. then the other items like intercooler kits, radiator, etc. shop around and get to know the vendors. Because when nothing is working out. You can always call them and ask for help the good ones are really helpful about all aspects of the turboing of hondas. 2C GLW build

I agree with going for a "kit" for the exhaust manifold, turbo, and downpipe. Intercooler piping can be pieced together easily from an ebay kit and fueling is really cheap with some bigger used injectors and a chipped ECU. Chinachargers can also be had for cheap on Ebay if you're brave.

do a little reading. there are so many articles out there people have taken the time to write up, and theyre all being wasted because people insist on being spoon fed.

There are plenty of reputable places to look for parts

Maperformance
Full Blown Motorsports
Rc Autoworks
SLS
Spoolin Performance
Go autoworks
Pfab
Inlinepro
Lovefab
Full Race

just the tip of the iceberg.

but what you seem to need more than just good places and reputable companies, is the knowledge to know what you need, then you can worry about where to find the parts.
