Default Turbo for my R

I just got my ITR a few months ago and now I'm ready to drop in a turbo. Overall, what kind of turbo would be the most beneficial as far as response, torque, peak hp and reliability. T3, T4, T3/T4, GT, etc.?

in the upper right corner is a search button.

T3/4 hybrid is the way to go. Why don´t just buy a DRAG III kit, standalone ECU and 440cc injectors and be happy?

No turbo is good for that, just get a JRSC
Turbo lag =

I'm sorry, but what is the difference between a standalone ECU and the Hondata stage 3 or 4?
Thanks for the help!!

Thanks so much for the reply. But also, if I lower the CR to 9.0:1 would I be able to raise my boost level. If so, what kind of modifacations would I need to think about doing?

lower the compression to 9.6:1

tune it with the hondata which works just like a stand alone except its cheaper and u dont have to work from scratch..

actually when you lower the compression you have to turn up the boost to make up for lost power.

come on now guyz i've heard of people tuning really good with a hondata and 8psi of boost on a stock type R other than a new headgasket and blowing the crap out of their motors.....turbo's are too much upkeep and not very fast on the street IMO
they do sound very intimidating though

WOW That was one of the dumbest things I have ever heard....

Apparently the C5 Vette I KILLED the other night is slow because my turbo integra is "not very fast on the street"....

And turbo cars are not hard to upkeep IF properly installed and TUNED.
