Default Turbocharger Decision time

Just bought a 94' Prelude Si with aftermarket stuff everywhere on it except the turbocharger system has been removed. Any suggestions on which kit to buy? I'm mostly just looking for something that won't put too much strain on my engine and provide decent boost without hurting my wallet. Not trying to be the biggest and baddest out there I want my car to last me several more years if possible, but don't get me wrong I love power. Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Jacob

if you dont want to hurt your walllet dont even consider turboing your car. sure you can get a kit for $3000 easy but there will be maintenance. you have to consider the shape of your engine. if it has a bunch of aftermarket stuff on it and it once had turbo i would get the motor check out because the likelihood of the previous owner racing or beating it is high. i would wait until you get more money to turbo. i think building your own kit is the best kit you can get because it's of what you want.
