Default Is there a commercially available turbo kit for the R18?

A co-worker of mine has an '07 Civic with the R18 and he claims he is getting a turbo kit. The prices and specs he mentioned ($3250 and 220 claimed whp) lead me to believe he's confused with the GReddy kit for the Si.

My understanding was that the aftermarket for the R18 was going to be few and far between due to the amount of emissions equipment on the R18, such as the cat built into the exhaust manifold.

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">
The All Japanese Performance FG1 Turbo Kit is ready for Pre-orders. The kit produced 176WHP @ 5 PSI on the Automatic R18 with OEM exhaust piping. We are certain that once the 7-8 psi levels are tuned we will see between 190-200whp on the automatic tranny. The 5spd versions are pretty certain to see an additional 10% increase in power over the results we see now. The kits aill be capable of running up to 8 psi with the custom reflash provided by Hondata The Manual R18 motors should reliably see roughly 220whp @ 8 PSI.

This kit includes:

AJP Manifold
Evo III 16G Turbo
HKS Blow off Valve
AJP Down-Pipe
Aluminum Intercooler Piping
AJP Front Mount Intercooler
All Couplers and Clamps
AJP PNP Injectors
AJP Oil Feed Kit
AJP Oil Return Kit
