Default N/A or Boosted ?

For the price and the reliability is better to go n/a or turbo. I dont plan to go over 300 hp and it's possible with ls/vtec and b20/vtec. I already have a gsr in my civic and in the case i will go n/a my motor is easy to sold. Im looking from couple of mounts for turbo kit, revhard stage2 , but it's really the best way ? thank's

300hp with a N/A setup is

not
very
common

put it this way

300 hp in a honda will not be reliable no matter what.

if you want to make your car fast, be prepared to lose reliability unless you spend a buttload of cash....still even then...

3500 + 1000 + the price of the motor + all the little thing you forgot (exaust line, firering kit..) = you have a fast car on stock internal and i think for this price you have a b20 vtec 240 whp with pistons, rod ...... no ?

If you want 300 hp I wouldnt go NA. Turbo is the best hp for the money IMO.
