custom turbo for my sohc

as some of you may know, i recently totalled a turbo chrysler new yorker. i have been told by a few people that i should use the turbo off the chrysler.

now my question is this... say i do decide to take the turbo from the chrysler and custom fit it to my civic. what would i need? what kind of power gains could i expect? what boost levels would that small ass turbo produce? i'm sure the gains won't be extreme, but since i have the turbo already, maybe i can gain 50 or so horse for a few hundred dollars and have a nasty bov too

someone help me make this reality.

what do i need to remove from chrysler and what do i need to buy to make it fit and work with the civic? my main 2 questions there.

hopefully if this works, it'll hold me over until i get my swap + real turbo kit.

been reading alot on there. i'm just trying to figure out what parts i need for my new yorker turbo, and i need to know what boost it'll run at. i also need to know what cars i can get what parts off of. the site tells a lot. i guess i gotta get to the junk yard.

that site has alot of blown motors on there too ....just make sure you do everything right.... if you get it going and it works.....let me know how to do it :)

most of the time they blew the motor because too much boost. i'm not gonna go over 5-6 psi. also they had no fuel or ignition adjustments.

i have a block guard, fuel pressure raiser, and plan to get 450cc injectors.
