Ok, to start, any turbo option is a gamble without the proper tuning. It is an R18 engine I would presume, so a Hondata tune would be required for your ECU.
You will need help, professional help. The turbo is only apportion of the build.

If you plan on going light, stock internals and all, low boost. You will need:
Fuel injectors, fuel rail with pressure gauge, better ( larger) throttle body assembly, intake plenum, head gaskets, exhaust manifold that accomodated the turbo setup, catalytic converter delete exhaust or new exhaust that accomodates the turbo dump and cat.

If you want to go big, you will need to rebuild the engine with upgraded internals and that requires a suitcase full of Benjamins.

Stay light - 8 lbs or less of boost and enjoy the rush. But turbo builds are a lot of work.

I grazed the surface here. Get help from a good shop on this if you're serious.

Here. lazy guy. As if no one has ever asked about this topic.
Turbocharging - 8th Generation Honda Civic Forum

Do you think this is an alternator you just bolt on? And do you think you were actually helped with that reply? Absolutely not. 8lbs of boost? WTF? PSI doesn't mean dick. And anyone telling you to base your turbo build on a measure of PSI without knowing the turbo and your power goals (you do have goals other than slapping on a turbo, right?) is doing more harm than good.

BTW. Public forum. You don't get to dictate what get's added to an ignorant request for spoonfeeding on a most complex topic that you CANNOT get an answer to in just a reply on a forum. All you helpless noobs crawling out of the woodwork lately is just downright ridiculous.

Lol.. your need for attention is amazing.. you could have just not replied.. but you couldnt resist.. and yes it is just about like bolting on a alternator.. except a few more nuts and bolts.. and yes i only want to put the turbo on to hear the blow off valve.. thats all
