reliable forced induction on 2000 civic si
I am wanting to build a reliable 300 to 400 hp 2000 si. I want to use the original engine (no swaps) and keep a/c, cruise, etc.. working. I know forced induction is the only way to come close. The car will be driven no more than 500 miles per month and will NOT be raced on a strip. I just want to be able to wax the occasional v-8 around town and have a very nice street/show car. So, the questions are:
1: Is this a realistic goal? 2: What kind of parts (parts list?) should I use? Please tell me everything from rods to half-shafts etc... the budget does not matter as I am going to be using the car to promote my business. 3: I have to very experienced honda/acura master techs who have signed on to help me with the build-up but none of us have any experience with forced-induction. Thus, who can do the final tuning on the car? I live in Middle-Georgia and would like to get someone as local as possible (southeastern states would be nice).
Whew, I know thats a lot of questions, but I have had this car a year and just have been told so many different things I don't know what to believe anymore. Please, any constructive help would be greatly appreciated !!!!!!!!!!

Realistic yes reliable mabe try F-MAX turbo kits they are the best pre progamend and plug and play no cheap Drag set up and what not were you need a new CPU and get the thing tuned Fmax makes more power and does it on pump gas and has all your detonation problems takencare of for you.
I've heard F-max has tunability issues i.e. the "add on" Lucas injectors are pre-set and can not be modified and are really not necessary. What do you think of Rev-hard? What other parts need to support the turbo for performance/reliability?
