Hey man, some of the basic stuff you will need are some custom exhaust headers, oil lines (and maybe coolant lines) to the turbo, custom downpipe, charge piping, and probably an intercooler. You can't just strap it on and go, either; you will probably need some type of fuel management system to keep your engine from detonation. I am by no means a guru at this stuff, but there are guys here who are. Read the FAQ on this site and then you will have a good idea of what you want to do. The stuff basically describes D-series engine turbo setups, but it usually applies to your B18 as well. Whatever you do, take the time to do it right. You don't want to end up with a blown engine in such a nice car. (or any car for that matter)

I think a T3 may be a little small for a B18, but yeah. You will need:
Some sort of fuel management (Apexi SAFC, Hondata, AEM)
Exhaust manifold
Intercooler (front or side mounted)
New injectors
Charge Pipes
Oil/Coolant lines
Downpipe
Blow off valve

Yeah thats all I can think of right off the bat but thats the jist of it. Again, I think a T3 might be a little small for a B18.
