Default turbo a 95 stock civic dx hatch

some guy told me i should just get a stock 95 dx hatch and turbo it. I was just wondering if it is a good idea and if the motor can even handle it. He also said his friend has been runing 17 pound for like 5 years and his is fine.

The 17lb on a stock motor is bullshit. The Dx motor will handle 5psi if that.

no you should get a EG hatch if you want one, then if you wanna go boosted D either go D15b JDM motor, D16Z6 out of a 92-95 Si or Ex, or D16Y8 out of a 96-00 EX. Those are your best D series bets. Then bolt on one of the numerous turbo kits available and have fun running around 8-11psi.
