In the summer there's informal meets just about every weekend, you just have to watch the events section.
What turbo are you about to install? Who is intalling it? Are you staying with stock internals?

it is not for sure yet but i think the Drag generation 2 kit
as far as internals,.... just the stuff coming with the kit
manifold
intercooler
pressure reg
high vol fuel pump
turbo timer
and a bunch of other s#$%t
hoses and stuff like that
yadda yadda yadda
what other internals should io be worried about?
i have a full shop at my place so i will most likely be installing it myself with the help of a hardcore import buddy:). i am not too worried about the install but are there other componenmts that are a must when installing a turbo?
also does anyone know of a better turbo to go with for a good price?
this one is listed for about $3,000 but i think american
with a dyno boost from 190.2 - 283.1 which is allright :)
alot of questions eh :) thanks

There's alot of info on PreludeOnline.com 's forced induction board.
Get a B&M under hood fuel pressure gauge, or preferably a in car fuel pressure gauge. You're going to be messing around with fuel pressure alot to get it running right. One step colder plugs, but not necessary now. Make sure you have a working car available as you'll be going back and forth to Canadian Tire for crap like vacuum tee's and small fittings and crap.
Internals means pistons, rods, valves, stuff inside the engine. You don't need to change anything if your just working with the basic kit at low boost for now.
Just be prepared to spend alot of time on getting the car to work properly.
