Im in Los Angeles California.

My BIG question for this car is ... Turbo or Super ??? I am not going to be racing around so I would like to keep the engine as stock as possible but I NEED more HP. My last car had 220 HP and 190 Torque, I would like to get as close to that as possible

Which will be less of a stress on my engine and maintain solid power throughout Most of the powerband?

Thanks for the input!

Welcome to HS Great car you have there. I'm not familiar with the engine options at this point. Who makes a SC for your car?

i think jackson racing makes one. i'm in favor of a turbo, even if it does not make too much hp at lower rpms, but hey that's the purpose of a honda: big hp at hi revs
