There was a comparisson somewhere where they tasted same turbo size on ls1 that made 100ftlb way earlier in power band with engine mounted turbo.

This has been discussed 35,143 times.

No, you do not want to use this in your Civic. The only reason this was ever developed is because there is no room under the hood of a V-8 car for turbos, and it has lasted this long because V-8's do not need a lot of help to make a scary amount of power.

With the right cam a 5.7l N/A V-8 can make as much power as a Honda with 25+ PSI, and much more torque. The little inefficient turbo with the terrible spool rate is just a bit of icing on the V-8 cake.
