Default Turbo SOHC build

Hey people, well this is a good start and the forum looks great. I see that there are already some turbo d16 builds on the go so thats cool, I cant wait to look through the info. Anyway, I'm Canadian and have a black 1994 Civic DX with a non-vtec engine that I am swapping for a Turbo D16Z6. I only want a max of 250-285 whp out of my engine when done. I cant wait to get the parts and start, untill then I have lots of reading to do on turbos. Thanks

Nice. Just some motavation:

If a civic weighs about 2500 pounds, and has 300 whp, thats the equivalent of a 600 whpMuscle car.

Im not syaing a Civic weighs 2500 pouds. Just an example of how fast a 300 whp civic will be.

300- 400hp .. not 600 the muscle car will have more tq and be rwd either way. a real light civic is a whole lot of fun.
