The Tial 50mm will work fine for your setup, but there are other options available. If you get the Tial, be sure to get the right spring in it. There is a chart on Tial's website which shows a table of intake manifold vacuum and relates it to a certain spring. Be sure to check you're getting the correct spring before ordering. I believe most Hondas are around -19in/Hg at idle if that helps...

As much as I love the TiALs, in this case a GReddy RS or RZ would be a better, simpler choice, simply because at such a lower boost pressure, he won't have to worry about which spring he needs to change in or out. For such needs, its the simplicity that makes this one so much more appealing, as long as he doesn't cheapen out and get a knock off version

Hmm, i wouldve recommended the HKS as it works great with all boost ranges..

but then again, I havent had any experience with the greddy ones..
