Default Turbos on VTEC motors? / NOS question

The speed addiction has got me.

Right now I am in the researching stages for a Turbo for my 93 Prelude VTEC, but then i read somethign about turbos not being good for vtec engines. Is there any truth to this? If this is so i guess i will have to go the supercharger route (if jackson ever comes out with one, that is...)

Also...what is the best NOS kit for a daily driver/occasional street racer. I want the speed, but we also have to keep things practical here..

any advice appreciated, thx=]

most of the problems that people are referring to are fuel system related i.e. the engine not getting enough fuel at higher levels of boost. if you set it up right vtec works to your advantage (as it should)
and IMO nos is cheating
like using a bike.
j/k i know nothing about nos someone else should help with that

i think you should go with a NOS dry set-up you can go from 50-70 shot with the kit. its pretty safe as long as you know what ur doin.
