99% of the people here are going to tell you to go turbo. Look at the very first post on this forum. It's better to search than to ask questions here. There's a lot of information. Good luck!

A supercharger is nice because it's always there. The moment you hit the throttle you have boost. It's a lot less problematic since there are a lot less pieces involved. It's almost like a bolt on. The turbo will always create better gains as far as max power goes, but the s/c is supposed to be great for daily driving.

Agreed, everyone that I know that has had a blower on a Honda has gone turbo
Turbo is the way to go

so does more problems, but whatever decision you go with, your going to end up with stuff breaking..even tho its a new car...so make sure you have $$$ and that your parents will be happy to support you with your car.

turbo....if you want instant power go w/a smaller turbo and it will spool rather fast....and imo supercharger kit's are too pricey ............turbo get's my vote
