going turbo..

going turbo..
i have a 96 civic dx coupe.. even with intake, headers, exhaust and race cat.. its slow.. so i was thinkin bout going turbo.. i have ac.. and thinkin bout keepin it.. but the hf/std manifold will get in the ac's way.. correct?
i saw Emil's 92 hatch using a 96 cx manifold w/ a custom plate welded to it.. it looks nice.. however, the runners look kinda small.. i think that this should work with stock ac.. does it?
ok.. this is what i want to get..
96 cx manifold w/ welded adapter plate
t25 turbo w/ o2 housing
custom 2.5" downpipe
custom 2.5" charge/intercooler pipes
1g or 2g side mount intercooler
1g dsm bov or those $50 bov from ebay
check valves or missing link
fmu 8:1
rubber coolant lines
stainless steel oil lines
is there anything else that i need? i dont want to boost a lot.. imma leave it at the stock boost.. which is like 6 lbs right? would this set up work right? is the fmu 8:1 enough? or do i need more fuel management?
thanks for any kind of help..
sorry for it being kinda long..
and thanks for reading..

Re:going turbo..
