Default Turbo on a 2.0 87 accord?

I am new to the Honda world and was wondering how a 2.0 engine on a 87 accord lxi would hold up to a turbo? would it take the boost and what size turbo would be best for it i just need to know mainly, would the engine take the turbo? how would it hold up? and what should i do to the vehicle when i do upgrade to a turbo on this particular car, and where would be a good place to get the turbo. thanks for all your info i appreciate it.

Redundant much?

Wont Be Beat, Why go into KILLS and post? because they talk good ****? Yea they are pretty funny, But i just posted here to ask a question and you two dick riders had something smart to say, I mean literally what did you expect? Me to sit here and laugh at you like you try to get everybody else to, nope, just because you where picked on everyday in your so called life, doesnt mean you have to get online and start doin it yourself, truthfully either way you go about it is fine by me, because it is just a computer and im not gonna slap myself like you two do when somebody tries to **** me off

Yes your car can be turboed, but expect to shell out a lot of cash... The cheap way will cost you around $3500-$4K. The expensive route---well we won't go there, you could buy a new civic with that....

Don't expect to boost more than 6-7psi, but even with this, you toast many cars..

Once again you have clowned yourself, we had nothing to do with it. By pointing out something funny to liven things up, you call me a dick rider? Get clue, come back when you do.
