To do it right, yes it will. If your gonna put a H22 in a civic and run a turbo your going to need good axles that'll be about $800 alone. Then you need a new radiator about $500, slim fan $140. Of course a new clutch $400, and replace all the other little things that need replacing $300. Mounts $400. Stock LSD $300. Wiring harness $300. New springs $160. All that plus the engine puts the total at just under $6k. Then if your going to do it yourself you'll need the right tools which might have to be rented.
This is just for parts, shipping will be extra as well.

You could just throw the engine in with all the original crap on it and just replace them piece by piece as things break and save some money at the beginning but that'll cost more time and money in the end.
