looks good, you will just have to get the mounts because it doesnt look like its included with the whole swap.

with the b18c5you can run boost safely if you keep it low (like under 8lbs) the motor has high compression witch isn'ta good thing for running forced induction . the other thing is get new cams you don't need to but the cams have a lot of overlap so there you are loosing boost pressure.also if you do go turbo run the car obd1 with a cromed ecu, it makes it easier to tune.
