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.

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.
