Extensive internal engine work is required to run a turbo on a H22. Be prepared to shell out somewhere in the $10k ballpark to do it correctly. Just search if you still need details.

Unfortunately with broad and already well discussed question you are going to get a lot of hate mail per say. I do suggest doing a search first.
Ask a specific questions like “what is the best manifold to use, or who makes the best pistons or rods”.

first you must decide on your goal..

"turbo or not to turbo?"
if not to turbo stay in the NA forum
