Everything and anything can be modified. Just depends on the reason your doing it, and how you justify spending your $$$. I strogly recomend picking up a couple 4cyl EFI tunning books & forcerced induction books

no point in spending any money on any other mods if you get a turbo kit, it should come with everything for you, and then jus get electronics

You should stop talking to those people, they will make you dumb.

match the throtle body size with the diameter of the piping for your intake... (ie turbo piping)

Seriously, those people have no idea what they're talking about.
Unless you throw a turbo on the 4cyl, you won't get much power out of it. The 2.0 head is very restrictive and has a tight radius port. It doesn't flow air very well, so no matter what mods you throw on it, it won't do much to help this. However, a turbo, cramming air down it's throat, works wonders.

Go here for more help: www.rdtiburon.com

That is the only kit available. However, you can put together a far nicer kit yourself, for less. Check out the site I told you about and those people will tell you what you need, and you'll find the info already there.
