I bought a 2002 civic si last year and am thinking about putting on a turbo kit, among other mods, and am definitely a noob when it comes to tuning cars. I've heard that to turbo a k20a3 safely I would probably want to go w/ forged pistons and maybe camshaft... any suggestions? btw, I'm planning on keeping it pretty much as a daily driver, so I'm not planning on going too overboard. Suggestions from someone with k20 experience is greatly appreciated.

OK, forgive me for being naive, but I am trying to learn what my best options are for turbocharging my 02 si. I apologize ahead of time for asking some incredibly stupid questions that are pretty much inevitible. I'd really like some opinions, thanks.
