Question Hey I'm new here.

Hey never really used this site in all the years I've owned a Honda.

Current car is a 1990 Civic SI 3 door. Current setup is a stock top end with 365k kms and a 1996 D16Y7 bottom end with around 120k-135k kms,
NOTE*: Wikipedia claims the 1990 had a D16A6 stock so I'd say it currently has an A6 head on a Y7 block.
Car is a OBD0 car

Would like to turbo it but need some advice.

Here is what i got laying around:

-Have a potential warped Z6 head with a redneck/backyard mechanic port and polish job. Came with an upgraded cam (Allegedly)
also have many of the top end components from the Z6 motor i tore down a few years ago.
-New Brian Crowley Valves springs and retainers for Z6/Y7
-A Complete D16Y8 out of a 99 SI coupe with 325k kms
-Skunk2 Black Pro series intake + Gasket
-Skunk2 Clear-coat Alpha Series Throttle body 70mm + Gasket
-Skunk2 2 or 3 (Cannot remember off hand [probably 2]) bar map sensor
-New throttle position sensor + Gasket
-New Black fuel rail and fuel regulator
-stainless steel Ram horn turbo header + Gasket's
-Red Short ram 3 inch turbo inlet pipe and cone
-stainless steel Turbo dump Pipe
-stainless steel 5 bolt turbo down pipe
-Black and Red Oil Catch can
-Black and Red Inline fuel filter
-Black Inline fuel pump
-Black 25 feet of feet and return line
-Red Oil adapter plate
-Black Oil cooler radiator
-Return line fitting for oil pan
-Drill bit and Tap for above fitting
-A '90 SI (A6?), a '93 Z6 and a '99 Y8 ECM All stock
-hand full of O2 sensors
-Boost guage
-Oil temp guage
-Water temp guage
-Volt meter
-Oil pressure guage
-Apexi Vtec air fuel controller
-OBD0-OBD1 jump harness
-Red Adjustable timing gear

Looking for:
-70mm turbo piping
-injectors
-Waist gate for the ram horn header
-New turbo one i got is burning oil bad
-New inner cooler one i got is bent up and has overspray on it
-ARP head studs
-Boost controller
-Head gasket (Should i get a A6, Z6, Y7, or Y8)
-Valve cover gasket
-Red Valve cover
-Hondata preferably, or a chipped ecm Or even someone who could chip one i have here.
-and Rods and pistons [down the road a bit though]

Bought doesn't fit:
400CC Injectors (too small for intake, loose in slots)
Blow of valve aka waist gate for header (Not same mounting face shape.)
Intake piping [2.5 inch need 3 inch aka 70mm NOT the stock 54mm]
Feed and return lines (Can reuse fittings with new line already purchased [Fittings are red and black])


That's what i got as of current, feel free to add any suggestions for parts to get or replace. Also, which head should i use out of the 3? Clearly the A6 fits perfectly its been running strong for 7 years now. but i doubt the cam valves springs and retainers for the Z6/Y7 would fit. they may fit in the Y8 but i myself am unsure on the A6. With the current setup this car has, it has a bit of umf for being essentially stock. Pulls hard and burns rubber with both tires all the way to 3rd in the dry. Well cherps 3rd really but full spin on 1 and 2 No prob. The SI shorter geared trans is quick off the hop but tops out around 160 at 5500 RPM and wont really push past that without matting the pedal.. do not have the Z6 trans out of the 93 coupe i pulled it from, but i do have an Auto on the Y8 currently. this will not be used or kept.
