If you want to boost I would recommend getting the F22B Block, and Put a H22A Head on it. I have heard some people recommend using the timing belt tensioner from the H23. Using the H22A Oilpump and Waterpump would be a good idea so you dont cultivate under high rpm.
The F22b block has iron sleeves. The H22A Blocks have Fiber Reinforce sleeves(or something like that) They are not as strong as the F22B Block. On the F22b i have heard its as easy as dropping the h22a head on the f22b block and using an h22 timing belt.
For a Turbo kit, you can get a Kit made for a Prelude then modify it to fit in your civic. If you part together a kit. you can get a kit minus manifold made for a B Series and get a H/F Series Manifold.
