For circuit racing, then you gotta go supercharer or NA for the response time out of turns. Either that or a REALLY small turbo, but that still won't compare to the instant throttle response of an NA car or the blower.

im building mine NA just because i like to have a small displacement motor that will hang or beat cars with motors 2 or 3 times the size without boost.

i know that turbo is the cheapest in the long run to be very quick but i hate the idea of front wheel drive turbo vehicles.

also it depends on what type of racing you want to do. if you just want a street monster, you have to boost it. if you want to roadrace, NA is the only real option.

once i build my motor i plan for mid to low 13's on street tires. that is plenty quick for me.

oh yeah supercharged honda's are gay period! sorry if you disagree

you should go N/A with Jun type 3 valvetrain and make just as much if not more power than toda c's, and still be able to drive it everyday!

But that is just my opinion
