Default 90 Hatch z6 swap need help turbo ?'s

Hello all Im new to the forum and need some help please dont be to hard on me cause I am new to the forced induction stuff. I got a 1990 civic hatch got a couple questions...

1. I got a d16z6 I swapped in no vtec yet need help with the whole wiring thing I am going to run a OBD0 pr3 ecu mabey... would it be easier to go obd1because i got a t3/t4 turbo for it (for tuning reasons)

2. I got this turbo for free everything I need exept oil cooler lines (he owed me alot of money this turbo was used once heard it run and he blew a rod) so my question is can anyone provide me with pics on how to install this?

3. Can anyone give me a good link for the injectors and fuel pump?

4. here is a list of what the kit has:
top mount manifold
t3/t4 T04E (M12)
plumbing
intercooler
and bov

Can anyone tell me if its a good turbo for stock im looking for 175 to 200 hp is that realistic numbers?

Its going to be DD so want it reliable to.

CP pistons
eagle rods
oem bearings
3 angle valve job
port match with skunk 2 intake manifold
skunk2 valves, springs and retainers

if you arent going over 200hp you dont need internals if you drive normal. you need to go obd1 to tune sir

As stated yes you want to be obd1. p28 wit hondata imo
You need to figure out your actual goal. is it 170,200, or 350?

you can put 200whp on a stock z6 and be ok(I would tare it apart all new gaskets n hot tank it n get specs checked out)

injectors=hp goal plus 100(ruff estimate

I would use a 255 walbro

arp rod/head bolts

For 300hp just make sure your motor is running top notch then add what I stated with your piston/rods and slap your turbo setup on.

My goal is 300hp, any more that is great but thats just a goal.

So let me get this right if I am going for 350 hp i would want 450 injectors?

And yes the block is getting hot tanked as we speak at the shop waiting for them to call me to start building it. Now alot of people that I know, rebuild their engines and then slap a trubo on them and they keep asking me why my rebuilt engine hasnt blown smoke (they have no break in period). Now from what I understand to properly seat the rings and bearings i drive it safely for about 2500 miles then do i put the turbo on? or do I put it on with it rebuilt and just keep low boost how does that work with turbo?
