Do you just want more power or are you doing a certan type of racing?
If you are just drag racing maybe nitrous will be enough for you.
Turbos are fun though. Power all the time.

I recommend turbo. I love turbo, despite all the problems its giving me.
Have you ever tried holding a cat and a dustbuster at the same time? Nothing gets any cleaner and you get all scratched up from the damn cat that is terrified of the noise. It really sucks.

lmfao, you should do alot of research, turboing honda's isn't cheap. If you do your own labor its bareable but think about this before you take the plunge, its nice to have a 250whp civic. Its also nice to not have to **** yourself everytime you park it somewhere.

Oh and Hahaha, just realized I answered your other post. Turbo is the only way to make power(more than 200hp) on a d series. Anybody who says otherwise is wrong
