Yeah, give or take.. You'd be surprised by some of the people that come here sometimes, just had to be sure we're all on the same page lol.

Start with a realistic power goal and overall direction. And that will help us narrow down the right engine specs and turbo. Will you be building the engine yourself?

Shut up baby, I know it!
.. shouldnt worry about pistons if its only 20plds of boost. 20 plds wont really do much at all. you will barely even notice the increase in power to be honest
Not much but the statement is fairly true. Lol. He will feel the power increase but I bet its not going to be what he expects it to be. I am used to being in cars that support at least 100 plds of boost so maybe its just me being biased
I dont know all their numbers except my buddys silvia. I go to the drift meets down in pats acres oregon. His silvia is putting around 700.

Clarify more about his teg though. Im assuming he is just doing a bolt on turbo. If he is doing a full system with the intercooler, blow off, geader and all that would make a huge difference expecially if he is going to use a t3/t4

I assumed cause he is a college student he didnt wan to spend a few thousand dollars getting the full turbo ssytem

Ahahahaha this. Yes. Because there is a turbo that is "bolt-on" that doesn't require supporting mods. You're a douche.

Also, OP, you and I are in the same boat. I have had a few honda-specializing mechanics tell me that they wouldn't be afraid to boost a 220k mile motor with the reputation the b18c1 has. But I feel better about rebuilding first as well. Also broke and in college.

From what I can tell, our motors can only handle about 8-9psi with an average turbo setup. Which should feel pretty crazy fast. The only boosted car I have owned was a dsm with a 20g. On 10psi that thing would scream. So in a high compression, higher-revving b series, and 8psi with good supporting mods, I am sure you could have some fun with it.
