So I asked Facebook and it didn’t go to well I wanna get a SMALL turbo kit for my 2024 Honda Civic sport I know it’s gonna cost money but just how much and what do I have to do before putting in a turbo kit

This backs up my thought from the get go, glad to see someone try it to show it's not viable.
They basically threw $5k + who knows how much more money (and time/effort), just to blow up the CVT and still not have it working reliably, AND lost the warranty. Imagine if they just bought the 1.5T...

This is a waste of money and time, especially if you have the CVT version. You are better off spending the money to sell your car and get a model with the 1.5T.
Oh God no, not a 2.0L turbo thread 
To give you the answer without the angry "forum decorum", the 2.0L NA can be turbo'd IF AND ONLY IF you are willing to spend the money, time, and more specifically if you don't expect more than ~250hp because of your cvt (and at that point fully expect transmission failure).
If you're dead set on a turbo, wait like a decade and maybe someone will make a legitimate ECU and manifold (I've heard that the akd performance one is apparently a scam?).
The pragmatic solution to your speed problem is to:
1) REDUCE WEIGHT!!!!!!
2)downpipe, exhaust, intake and a tune. You'll be around 180whp-190whp, you'll basically be matched with a stock si
3) suspension and wheel/tire upgrades, makes the care drive better
4) REDUCE WEIGHT!!!!!!!
I know a lot of people here are Debby downers about it, but it's for good reason. I'm sure if someone had the know how and like $20k, they could successfully make a type R knockoff lol. Don't take it in the wrong way, everyone means well. This engine still has a lot of NA potential, and ive seen some people smoke tuned si's with enough weight reduction and honestly better driving. Just be careful you don't ruin your car!!!!
Godspeed!

If your really wanting to build the 2.0 I recommend looking at a 2.0 MT to bolt up to it. 3k range for a used one. SI center console to re position the shifter for the MT. Then build away. That's what my 2 months of research has got me so far. Also gonna want to swap the TCM. And flash everything to get it all in sync.
