If you want to turbo it, the best and cheapest option is to transplant a complete turbo engine, ecu,ignition ecu plus wiring, and fuelpump. You can't just put a turbo on a n/a B18 without considerable costs for adaptations such as sodium cooled valves, forced and cooled pistons, turbo injectors, turbo fuelpump etc.etc.
