2003 Civic LX Non VTEC TURBO Help

Hey folks,
1st post here...Great site with tons of info.
I have a few questions: I recently bought a 2003 Civic LX. I think it is the sohc 1.7 litre? Non V-Tec. I travel approx 180 miles round trip for work. I am looking for a turbo that will give this car extra oomph!!!
It has absolutly no ass! Is there a kit out there for my car, and finally what type of reliability should I expect with a 5 pound boost. My 2000 Honda civic VP has 110,000 miles on it. Just to give you an idea.
The set up must be reliable. Thanks again,

Irish

180 miles round trip? Must be one hell of a payin' job.

Well...any car can be turbocharged. The only thing you would need custom made would be the header and downpipe. And even if they don't have a kit for your car yet, they probably will soon.
5 psi would be fine I'm assuming. Your fuel economy will depend on how you drive the thing.
