Need help deciding:Nitrous set up or homemade turbo set up??
Heres my set up:1988 CRX Si,Si 5 speed tranny,minime motor with D16A6 bottom end with D16Z6 head.Head has been gone through port and polish.P28 ecu.It will pretty much be a daily driver and I'm wondering which would be more detrimental to the motor after a long period of time.Obviously with either one I know a professional tune would be in order.And I'm kinda leaning towards the nitrous kit cause I'm thinking just squeezing the bottle every once in awhile would be better than running turbo constant but I'm open to any and all suggestions!!! Thanks guys!! Gimme some opinions!!

Definately go turbo, but leave the rhb5's for lawnmowers. A very well rounded street turbo for the D series is the 42/48 T3 off of alot of saabs and volvos.

id probably do turbo as well.
also check with your local laws if youre going to run squeeze, i wanna say in california- if you get pulled with a nitrous bottle hooked up, they can impound your car on the spot. i think nitrous is a little more damaging to the motor as well.
