from what i have gathered from other honda weenies in person is that you're not gonna get more than 240hp n/a from any built honda engine. and 6 psi of turbo won't do much. superchargers for your cars only add 40-60 hp. 6-10 isnt a big jump at all.
you have put wayyy too much money into your car. with what you have, i doubt your car would see 12's. come on, thats a 17 second car stock. i barely have any mods and i havent been to the track cuz theres none around me. but from asking other people with my exact mods i can tell you that with some good tires im in the 12.9-13.3 range, easy.
in a street race i think you would be left behind. i have raced a del sol with turbo before and i gained on him and passed him steadily and easily. im not saying your car is slow. its slow for how much money was dumped into it. the more you do to ur car, the more unreliable it is. all i have to do is get long tube headers, underdrive pullies, mass air and i would hit high 12's consistently; all n/a. even cheaper... i could just get 4.56 gears and thats it. for right now, im leavin my car alone. i commute to school everyday. i speed as it is. i dont need a 10 second car with ME driving it. when my loan is almost payed off i need to decide if im going to put t76 turbo in my car or just get the brand new 2005 mustang 5.0 dohc, over 400hp n/a. decisions, decisions.
