OMG First, What are you doing with the car? Drag, Track, or Daily driver?
Honestly there is no BEST for a honda, it all about how you set the car up

well he did say, to drag....

From what ive read over the year or so ive been here, Turbo will be faster, but N/A from what ive heard will always be more reliable, less work. So use that to determine what you want. If its just speed not work, I say turbo.

dry it off the cliff with you in it. Nope bad idea, take a tricicle and drive that off the cliff, not worth wasting the car. Put me in your will for your car though.

i built my turbo LS for about the price of a USDM GSR swap. And i kick the crap out of damn near everything.

I find NA to be cooler and more impressive, but Turbo is good if you want to go fast and make real power.

I'm running an internally STOCK b18a with a modified drag 3 kit at 8psi. For fuel management i'm running hondata tuned by the whip factory. Daily Driven, reliable, and fast.

I can only say that I know about one N/A hatch that I could see run 12's and I think it's damn impressive but I got a feeling it's a built LS vtec and the rumor is that he got like 2 more motors laying in his garage. I don't know the car is wickid, the begging take off is fucken insane and then it levels out.

Turbo is better for drag but this post, as I stated above is retarded.

for drag, turbo....because its all about top end. right ? revin to 7, slam into next gear...to seven again.... you get full boost around 2800rpm, maybe 3000rpm...depends on your tuning and ****. Boost really helps ...on straight-aways....but NA is the best for track.....no lag..
