I've got the crappy stock engine in my 98' civic ex. Its fine for now, but I have a b18c on the way. I was just watching SpeedVision and saw the budget civic they are working on. They put ZEX kit in and I think it would help me out a little, and when it comes time for the sawp I can just hook up the kit to the new engine. But I would also like to go woth a turbo or a supercharger after 6 months of the swap. Is this a good idea or a bad idea? Can i go with the ZEX kit, and a turbo, or am I going to blown to the moon? Thanks guys!

Turbo + n2o on the b18c? Or do you want to n2o the b18c first, then after awhile get rid of the n2o and go turbo?

if you are going to go with turbo and n2o then expect to do a little rebuilding. you'll want to get the compression as low as you can to run alot of both. maybe 15psi and 55shot (65, 75, 150 whatever you want). you will want to make sure the engine can handle it. running turbo and nitrous is safe, but not on the stock engine. and actually, if you havent ordered that engine yet, i would go with a b18b for turbo and nitrous set ups. its a bit stronger to start off with. kinda weak, but if you are going to turbo and n2o it then that doesnt really matter.
