Read the sticky at the top of the page. 'Ka-T info' thread. Best advice i can give you.

Tons of people turbocharge a SOHC.

Hondas are great.

You are probably better off buying it all at once, to make sure that all your pieces will work with each other. I bought mine piece by piece and spent more time trying to get crap to work together, and probably ended up spending more money in the long run on stupid stuff.
