Default EG Hatch + Z6 turbo = 1st impressions?????

I have a 91 CRX with a Z6 in it but I figured I'd post here to get more input. How was your first impression with turbo? What you very happy? Noticeable problems that come?
I'm going for a greddy kit, 1G DSM side mounted intercooler, and 5-7 lbs. on stock internals (8K miles on motor).

i loved my turbo. Just dont overboost, get a good fuel setup, intercool and BOV. You should be fine.

faster and cheaper than a B18C swap, just not as reliable

I have seen many hack motor swaps, and many perfectly reliable turbo installs. That is a BS statement. Reliability level is directly related to the installer and tuning.
