Some helpful advice:

How many miles on the engine? More than 150,000 and you are going to probably blow it up if you bolt a turbo on. Increasing the input pressure on an engine with that many miles will put a real strain on it.

If you want to turbo your ride - IMO - look for a real low mileage motor to start with; build up the bottom end or at least make sure that the bottom end is solid and then start adding higher input pressures.

Good luck - as far as what brands, one of the Mods can better help you there or look in the DIY threads.

Car 1: 96 integra sedan
if you have a question about boosting your integra, matbe you should put your question in the area for integras, not the diy threads

Try the peekboost integra Turbo Kits for 94-01 models. Its almost $4000. But remember that it might put to much pressure in your engine you can blow it off.
