My ultimate goal is to put this car into the low 14's, where it is pretty fast and still daily driveable.

Hummm... 17-18 pounds of boost should (depending on how you can drive) give you way lower than low 14's in 1/4 mile. 17-18 pounds of boost would require pretty much an entire build of your motor. lower compression, sleeved block,etc... Do a compression and leak down test on your motor, if they come out good, then build a turbo kit for your stock motor. Running 9lbs of boost on a stock b18a will get you into the low 14's pretty easily, of course depening on driver and proper tuning.
