I had a Greddy kit on my D16 and I liked it but I just had a B18b swapped into my Civic and I turboed it this weekend heres what I did or recommend:
Look around Honda-Tech for a Greddy B series manifold and Greddy 18g turbo. I paid $100 for the manifold and $325 for the turbo, make sure the downpipe is included.
You want to go Uberdata. Its nice and cheap. If you are in a place that has emissions you might not want to because you have to convert to OBD 1 but it is the cheapest way.
I paid $150 for a P28 at a local junkyard. Now Id go to www.junkyarddog.com and request an ECU for a 95 Civic EX. Ive heard automatic ECUs are cheaper and can be easily converted to manual.
Chip the P28. It takes about $40 in chipping supplies and is really easy to do.
Obd 2 to 1 conversion harness, $75 at Lightning Motorsports.
Chip burner was $85 at www.moates.net
Go to http://www.ecimulti.org/uberdata/ and follow the instructions to burn a basemap.
I got a www.johnnyracecar.com intercooler for $195. They now have bigger and better intercoolers for $270. Which is a good price for how big it is. http://www.street-customs.com/cgi-bin/ccp5...r=HOME:specials
Buy two 2.5" 180 degree mandrel bends and one 90 degree mandrel bend from JC Whitney or a local auto parts place. Buy about 5' of 2.25" flexible exhaust piping at local parts store. Use these parts to make your charge piping.
I used rubber hose from a local parts store (Royco) as charge pipe connectors.
DSM BOVs are about $40 on Ebay.
You can get oil feed and drain line kits at www.cheapturbolines.com for $78. I made the drain line myself and used the oil feed from my D16 kit. The drain line is easy to make but the oil feed line is hard to come by. Id just get the kit from the above link.
The inlet on the 18g turbo is 3" which makes it a bitch to get inlet piping for it. You also have to grind away a little of the block. I ended up using 3" stainless steel stovepipe that I had left over from installing a pellet stove. You can probably pick it up at a local fireplace store. Its expensive but I cant remember how much, you only need about 20" though so you should get it pretty cheap.
Pick up whatever 3" K&N filter you like for about $35.
Crap I forgot about injectors. RC 440s for $275. DSM injectors work but I was nervous about using used injectors. Paid $25 for OBD 1 injector clips.
