Question Best Turbo Kit for B16/B18???

I'm starting the build up of a 1996 civic hatch with either a B16 or a B18. I was wondering who makes the best turbo kit for this type of setup, besides the vortech kit. The engine will have low compression pistons. So the boost would be set a little higher than normal. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

well, i happen to think that max rev makes the best kit, o yeah, did i mention im selling mine ...neways, they all r basically the same. most people will say that the drag manifold sux,which it probably does, but for most kits, u can kinda get the same parts in each kit other than the manifold. wen u say vortec, i think ur thinking about superchargers, i didnt think they were in teh tubo game...

yep, this time its for sure. the 1st time i backed out i thought about it, then took everythign out to the garage to install it, then i was like, umm...i dont have the money for this and a 240sx sounds so nice...so to make a long story short, im out for good this time. it sux cuz ive learned so much about it, and now it just seems like i wasted my time w/ it, o well.
neways, for the guy that started the post, the most important thing that u need to go turbo is good fuel management. tuning is the key. period, end of story.
