There are loads of aftermarket honda specialists in the uk, your just not looking hard enough. For your exhaust try http://www.funkypower.co.uk http://www.madmotors.co.uk Or a custom build from http://www.exhaustsuk.co.uk You can pick up an aem cai kit from them but its expensive, or get an ebay copy for £50.
Turbo or a supercharger aint a cheap thing to do in the uk just so your aware. I would go down the engine swap route for more power on the cheap then take it from there.

That turbo kit is for a b-series engine, it wont fit your d-series, plus the quality aint that good so it might break on you, greddy do a nice kit for a d-series, you pay for what you get.
you could swap a d16z6 sohc vtec engine out of an esi then turbo that, Or a b18c4 out of a 1.8 4 door vti and turbo that for insane power, If you want to stay n/a look at a b16a2 vti engine or b18c6 teg type-r motor. swap is fairly easy you just need to get all the bits, gearbox,ecu,loom,clocks,mounts,etc.
