Default 00 ex d16y8

hey i just got a civy with a d16y8, i want to eventually go HMT. Has any turboed their d16y8? any tips if so? I have been driving an explorer for 2 years so this civic stock feels quick though i knowits not, any tips on how to actually make it quick if i didnt go forced induction or nitro? How much would chaning out the stock internals really do? i know it would be expensive but would it be worth it? well thanks for any feedback.

Stock internals will not make the car any faster. It just helps to withstand the abuse of major turbo. I'm building a y8 right now.

but I do like little boys.
