thanks, well of course I would rather go with the full kit but its just too much money for right now. Im not really sure about wat to do next on my car now. I could go for some looks, and get a cf trunk(im getting a cf oem hood next weekend) and get new tires and darker tint, maybe even side skirts but idk well see

I would do Alot more research I have been doing it off and on for a couple months now and I still don't know all I need to know yet. You want to make sure you do it right the first time or you will end up with a blown engine.

There are some good turbo "lists" on this forum I would go to them and look up what each part does and how it works with the turbo then head over to 7thgencivic.com they have very good detailed specific parts lists for all levels of hp.

Really, five minutes of reading on this site, or even "www.howstuffworks.com" about turbos and you'll save yourself a lot of time becuase you won't need to ask such basic questions.

No, you cannot have a header and a turbo, the exhaust manifold and turbomanifold completely take the place of the header
