okay turbo9mm... i recommend using a T3 or an older Mistubishi eclipse turbo, you can find a decent one for a hundred or two.. get new low compression pistons, new rods because the stock ex rods are 'the size of sharpie markers' NOT good for boost.. Eagle makes nice forged rods called H-Beams.. JE makes the low compression pistons... after that your going to need a HF manifold, typically found on CRX hfs... for an intercooler you can easily get an old saab intercooler... alot of the information ive learned through www.homemadeturbo.com ... thats what is recommended, because you said your car is a daily driver, just like mine, you cant afford the down time of having an engine ripped out unless its done on a weekend.. you could easily make replacing the pistons and rods a 1 day project.. and this route is much cheaper... if you have any other questions PM sk8rmike or chahonda... they know what theyre talking about. good luck on your choice
