Depends, on a Honda, Turbo charged is generally the better way to go. A Supercharger yields less power, but it is consistent across the entire powerband. Supercharging is generally safer, but you'll never really get big numbers out of it. Look at it this way... You want high HP numbers, get a turbo... You're looking for more consistent power, get a supercharger. You'll get way more HP on the top end from a turbo charger, but your bottom end is still going to stink. It's all in preference. Drag Racing or Autocross? There are many factors in your decision.


BTW, try searching this, there are a million topics. Plus everyone else is gonna tell you to search, too.

Ummmmm, ok. He was trying to help you out. :Shakes head:

And you wonder why nobody responds to your threads.

Oh, and btw SEARCH. I would just report your pointless thread, since it has been covered a million times, but I don't like doing that and would rather your sh*tty grammar and poor attitude just gets flamed.

Actually, I take that back. I only found 973 threads about the "turbocharger or supercharger" topic.

What the **** are you talking about? I'm seriously confused. You want some advice? Light yourself, and your POS car on fire.

Then try searching "Fire Extinguisher, Me, Holy **** it burns"

What an idiot. You go on a Honda forum asking about turbo and sc, don't expect V8 answers. You probably got a dose of smoked by a weak honda recently or you're a kid always sitting at home with no life.

You guys have to admit though. If a turbo can make a D16 pretty damn fast , imagine what it woudl do with a V8

Still waiting on my V8 turbo project....maybe a 2nd gen Rx7

You know it is obtuse **** ups like yourself that give Honda drivers a bad name. I don't care what you drive or who you think you are, you are not a car guy unless you can appreciate any nice car.

Stay out of these forums, all you do is ask stupid questions and cause problems.

I'm hating the rep. i get from driving my honda. It's turbocharged and pretty damned quick. But because it's a honda, I get flamed all the time when crusing. Stuff like "F@ggot" and ****. It's cus' of that damned "gay and the curious" movie a.k.a. "fast and the furious"
