Well to be honest none of the kits available for the Accord are truely DOT approved no. one, that may be something to concider for a daily driven car.

Most kits will run between $1995.00-3000.00. (not including the installation)

Drag Turbo kits and Turbonetiks(spelling?) kits (formally the F-max turbo kit) are likely the two better built kits for the 95LX Accord. You will need a kit for a f22 SOHC engine.

And, it's not a simply bolt on and go kit. On a scale from 1-10, this install will rank a solid 7+ not including the tuning and dyno time you may need to get the kit to run properly.

Just things to consider, also how healthy is your transmission and mileage on the car, again for a daily driver is something to look into again.

Unlike the Civic's and Integra kits, no one ever built a very good off the shelf Accord turbo kit for the F-series engine.
