You dont even have an intake or header? You should consider adding a couple hundred more bucks and add them in too, you'll be happy with it.

what car/motor do you have? You should be ok to boost most stock honda motors but you seem like you dont know a whole lot about what your about to get yourself into. I would suggest researching a TON before getting into boosting a stock motor. I have been planning on a turbo for almost a year now and I still dont know everything I probably should know.
