wait??? turbo and simple bolt-ons i/h/e together? sorry, i don't really understand. but the si will make more power either way. how much power depends on how much money.

I think hes going to try and bolt the turbo onto the header

Either way to the OP- you need to do alot of research. Pick a route first (turbo, supercharger, NA, nitrous) and then work towards that. Buying an intake and header if you eventually want to fo turbo is a waste of money, you cant use them with your tubo setup.

the answer is obvious, stock for stock, the EP3 owns...Adding a turbo or bolt-ons wouldn't make it any slower than equally modded EM..

D17 which come in the coupe have really no potential unless you build it and turbo it... now the SI is better but stil not as GOOD as the new 06 SI. If you want power right off the bat go with the 06 si.
