Personally, I would swap out the f20 engine for a h22a if you plan on boosting it ;)

And best thing to do is do lots and lots of research on boosting a honda.. Plenty to learn on the Internet ;)

Most turbo aplications are all similar to others, so find out what parts you will need to run everything safely and then find out what parts you will need specificly for your set up ;)

There's a bit of info to be sifted out from here
http://www.ludegeneration.co.uk/honda-p ... ilit=turbo
and further searches on the forum might help you.


Also, as it's your first post, you should know that Ludegeneration is equally likely to suggest you use a turbo like this:-

I was gonna turbo my 2.0, I still would like to do one. There are no really off the shelf parts, everything would be custom. Fitting a H22 will be your cheapest option for more power.

F20 have iron liners like the b series so they can handle boost better than a h22 using stock liners.
