Possible with a stock motor. Heading into danger zone though. 160-170 is safe. Above its a game of luck, either ur lucky and have a solid motor, of not and it goes bust. Seen a US d hit like 300kw on a boost spike. the dyno chart in on turbod16 somewhere.
To the thread starter. As u can see, u can have exactly what u asked for for arround 2.5k if u can do some stuff yourself.
The greddy kit is quality kit. U can get it here for little money and run it straight outta the box. People who say otherwise dont have experiance with this.
I personally ran this kit for 2 years on the stock tune on 7 psi (2psi above factory set). Only mod to the kit was a small cooler. The current owner of the car is still running the same tune no probs.

thanks dude... yer i was basically looking for ppl who have had experience in the boosting of hondas to let me know what they think.. alot of good feedback which has helped. ill be sure to let you all know how the project progresses..
Greddy kit looks the way to go. then maybe get some avo extractors and dumppipe as they would be of higher quality. garret t28 bb turbo (aparently thats what ppl recomend)
just trying to find a tuner now. got a mechanic who will install it but now the tuner.. i hear alot of good and bad feedback about various ppl here in brisbane as to who i should go to..
looks dodgy... im 96 civic aswell so not sure if thats the right one. the 96-00 greddy is 2200 + tax so at least i know that im buying. id rather pay that bit extra and get the right stuff..
Needs injectors (RC or precision are quite good value for money), ECU(i recommend PFC) & fuel pump (Walbro), Intercooler (something a decnet size to fit into your front), BOV (that's a preference).
Even though it does say it can use standard Injectors and fuel pump get them, as its insurance. One wrong move in that department can cause a blown engine.
The other thing is the dump pipe is not the smoothest design, might be able to get a custom made one. depending on space.
The Greddy turbo is quite good for low boost apps (good for up to 10PSI). Especially when your not too sure what to do.
later you can always upgrade the turbo with a EVO turbo as the Greddy kit uses Mitsubishi turbos. Or you can Highflow your turbo.
I've seen in the past the AVO kits makes some decent power, why not have them build it all for you, the last d-series I remember seeing from them punched out a healthy 130kW atw, not too bad
