300hp is gunna be hard if you go n/a. Just go B16 turbo, beef internals a bit, tune turbo to kick in with vtec and call it a day.

Don't "tune" your turbo to spool when VTEC does. You want a turbo that will spool ASAP, while leaving enough room up top to efficiently meet your HP goals.

300 hp N/A will take an act of God. Save a LOT of money and go with the turbo.

If you tune the turbo with Vtec then it will make a great DD if u stay out of Vtec. If you get a Turbo timer then you can tune it to kick in sooner when at the track.
