This of course depnds on the size of your wallet/and how much hp you want and how far you wanna go but id like to think this is the bare minium for a reliable street drivin turbo kit.
turbo Exhaust manifold
down pipe
injectors
oil pain drilled
oil feed/ return lines
fpr
all cooresponding gauges (boost, egt is a min)
intake ( if your car is maf equiped, get a short ram or something that somebody alread makes for your car and hack it so it fits the compressor with a coupling and mount the maf, if there is no maf sensor then youve got a honda your lucky)
intercooler with piping
and last but not least the turbo.

tell him to be like every ricer and slap a drag kit on it and be on his merry way.
people who want to go custom usually dont ask what kinda parts they need in order to go custom.

My suggestion:
-Minimum of a T3T04e trim turbo (my opinion..... anyway)
-Hondata 2b or AFC "hack"
-DSM 450cc injectors with resistor box
-Custom equal length turbo/exhaust manifold
-GReddy TypeS BOV or whatever it is that you like
-Boost, oil pressure, fuel pressure and EGT or A/F ratio gauges
-2.25 to 2.5 inch mandrel bent pipings from www.JCwhitney.com
-vacuum hoses, not that weak ass colorful silicone from APC
-Steel Braided oil supply line from Swagelock in Military Highway
-Steel Braided oil return line
-T fitting for oil supply line
-Threaded oil return line adapter for the oil pan
-Tial 35-40mm external wastegate
-Turbo timer
-FMIC (starion? or contact me, I know places to check)
-Dump tube
-Custom Downpipe
These are the basic stuff that I can think for now that you should have. There's really more to this than what I mentioned. You will need other materials like high temp sealant (permatex), locktite, teflon tape, synthetic oil, clamps, pipe connectors, anti-seize grease, pipe flanges, tools, etc. Have some money ready. Dont get too cheap with parts especially on the major items like the manifold and the turbo itself. Some manifolds will crack. Some turbos are not optimum for your B18. I've been involved with a few turbo projects. Hit me up for other questions. peace
