Im curious as to what a K20c is...

Im pretty sure you can figure out what you want after you do some research and find out the pros and cons of each. Turbo is always best bang for the buck in little 4 bangers.

No one knows what you are asking. Be specific, but first try a search as this has been covered.

well, what are you trying for, high peak hp? or a fast street car? what?

heres what i say for a street car from my favorite idea to my least favorite.

S/C: JRSC @ 9psi - tq is awesome and will pick up anywhere, my favorite setup, which i will be doing soon

Turbo: get a nice kit, like full race for example, go like 7 or 10 psi - tons of power, not quite the response of the s/c, sounds awesome

N/A: $$$$$, if you go this route, get a set of stage 2 cams and full valvetrain, an rbc, nice header like SSR or Toda - amazing throttle response, pretty fast, mad respect for N/A, what honda was designed for.

Alot of it depends on your wallet. So talk to him and find out how much he has, then we can narrow this down real fast.
