if you want to go turbo I'd go with a SOHC engine... DOHC engines work best for naturally aspirated SOHC are great for turbo's...

Id get a non-vtec engine DOHC so that you can just swap it in, and throw a turbo on it and run low boost like 6-9 PSI.

sir nasty, the fact that its a dohc has nothing to do with it being a good turbo setup or not, its just most of the dohc engines honda has dont have cast iron in the cylinders/cast iron sleeves, and on top of that they are a shorter stoke then most of the sohc versions

shorter stroke = less torque
