Default SOHC Turbo Kit on DOHC Motor?? What needs to be changed for it to work??

Well I've seen SOHC VTEC turbo kits(Greddy or F-max) on the internet go for much less than a DOHC counterpart. I'm very new to the turbo game and I'm thinking of coming to the Darkside after a lengthy stay in the heavily worked N/A tuned sector.

I know many junkyard setups use the same turbo whether DOHC or SOHC. I only want 5-10psi max. I know I'll need a new manifold and downpipe. Other than that what else is needed for the coversion, and is it even worth it??

I have a 92 CX that will either have my current B20 turboed or a B18C1 turboed.

Basic question is, will it work, what do I need to make it work? Is the turbo large enough to work or will I die on the top end?? What about injector size and fmu? I know the piping will wok.

Thanks in advance for all the replies(If I get any).
