Default bought a turbo

I just bought a turbo kit for my civic it came with a t3 t4 50 trim turbonetics ball bearing turbo intercooler and all the piping for it.. Now i know i need some new fuel injectors and all the gauges for a turbo.Do i need to do anything to my ECU? Im new to the turbo so i dont know much about it..Please let me know. Maybe on how to install a turbo kit with pictures any help would be appreciated. My motor is b16a2

Read the FAQ, it will answer your question about the ECU.

1.) read stickies in this FI forum
2.) read stickies in every other FI forum you come across
3.) read faqs on FI from every place you can imagine
4.) re read them
5.) might as well look for some more stuff on FI and well, READ IT
6.) piece togeather a parts list like i did here https://www.hondacivicforum.com/m_443363/tm.htm(youll know what parts to get from this sticky https://www.hondacivicforum.com/m_40.../tm.htm#400322)
7.) tweak your parts list by asking a lot of questions from people who have done it before, asking questions and doing your research is going to be your best bet.
8.) dont rush your build, thank god i didnt, if i wouldnt have found some people on this forum i would be running an ebay kit and crying in a couple months. you mayhave SOME ofthe kit but you dont need to be boosted instantly, rush the project and youll probably be looking for another d16 to swap out for your engine thats blown to pieces.thats a pretty mean turbo, so respect it, be patient, and keep asking questions. 90% of the people on this and other forums are glad to help and throw you some positive criticism.
