ok here is my set up so far its 95 civic coupe ex with a gsr motor and tranny i have a skunk2 pro series intake manifold, 68mm skunk2 throttle body, aem fuel rail, aem fuel pressure regulator, 370cc rc injectors, msd distributer, msd external coil, msd 8.5mm spark plug wires.
i have a turbonectics t3/t4 turbo, front mount intercooler and piping not sure on the size of intercooler, an hks 42mm wastegate, and a tial blow off valve.
i dont think i left anything out but if i did let me know. i am lookin for advice on if this is a good set up or what let me know what you all think.
Do you have a turbo manifold? Anything for fuel management?Since your already OBD1I would suggest, along with everyone else, to get you ecu chipped with crome for your fuel management.
Oil lines.
Vacuum lines.
Manifold
Downpipe
Dumptube
Exhaust
Engine Management System (Crome/Hondata/ECtune/Neptune/etc)
Fuel Pump
Bigger injectors (370cc are going to be maxed with ~6psi on that turbo)
Basically you bought all of the unnecessary stuff, and left out all of the necessary.

i knew i would forget something i have an exhaust manifold and my ecu is chrome chipped and i also have a 255lph fuel pump. i have everything to install the turbo like all the vaccum lines oil lines sutff like that my down pipe is 2.5 inchs to a 2.5 exhuast so i guess the only thing that i am lacking is bigger injectors and i didnt buy any of that stuff it was givin to me. well have i dont think i left anything out this time but if i did let me know. i know im gonna need to upgrade my injectors how much would 770cc injectors handle in power im lookin to make around 500hp and i also have 8.5 to 1 pistons. and how far should i build the block to safely handle that much power? any help would be great
Get the engine fully built, sleeved. Honestly I have never seen a 500hp civic so I don't know what all you need but I know 770's aren't big enough. I think you might need nitrous to get that much hp, I'm not sure.

Honestly, if you would want to buy a modded civic with all the work done for you. I pity you, thats no Honda Enthusiast.
You will need at least 1000ccs to do 500whp, and I would suggest getting rid of Crome (Hondata/Neptune/Ectune would be better suited) and really really really doing your research before you go for 500whp. That is not something that you just get up and do.

yeah thanx for advice guys i figured i would atleast 1000cc injectors and i had planned on ditchin the chrome chip for hondata i hear its the best out there right now. and i dont really know what you mean by research for a 500 hp build what do i need to be lookin for the car already has 290hp and im tryin to get the motor with turbo to 500 or more before i go with nos my end goal for the car is around 700 hp. i also plan to get valve train upgraded and go with different cams i was thinkin about skunk2 turbo cams any thoughts on those or can i get better ones somewhere what do you all think
for a 500-700 hp powerplant, you'll be rebuilding all internals, and everything you could possibly think of. the reason we say research it is because you're asking if just a couple of these parts are ok to reach your goal. and 290 hp is a lot different than 500, you'll have a hard time dd'ing it. and since you want to use NAWZ, you'll need even larger injectors.
if your final goal is 700 hp you would be better off just getting a dart block and build that up with sleeves block girddle, and everything cuz those blocks are good for i think 1000 hp my friends is building one up for his teggy.
