Broke college students w/ Turbo Hondas & more @ the Minnesota H-T meet!
Some shots I took today at the local Honda-Tech meet setup by Accord94DX:
My POS, Greddy kit @ 7 psi
total sleeper w/sidemount (pic below) and stock exhaust 
sidemount shot...best $40 I've spent in a while
Night_Minx's ride, Greddy kit @ 6 psi, spark racing FMIC, Apexi N1 exhaust, ACT clutch, some other goodies...CLEAN
jdmcivicek's ride, B16, Jun stage III cams I believe, some other stuff, looking good
Accord94DX's ride, HKS turbo kit @ 5.5psi (?), ACT clutch, Tanabe exhaust, other stuff..."torque curve like a dump truck" - Accord94DX
Jago's ride, H22 powered Accord
BoostedSOHC's ride, Apexi turbo kit @ 7 psi, nice ride
JICEK9's Jackson Racing supercharged EX and a stock Si
JICB16B's CTR powered (B16B) 00 EX coupe I believe, JDMed out and so clean you could eat off the valve cover
Now for some non-H-Ter's :
MEAN VW, VR6, Vortech SC, widebody, custom paint, sounds like a damn supra
ITR-powered hatch w/bolt-ons, for sale 9k/BO I believe (IM me and I'll get the guy's info)
That's all the pics I have for now, enjoy

Dang that's alotta turbo SOHC's.
boostin you would get quite a noticeable gain with an aftermarket exhaust. My friend had a turbo 99 EX, and with his stock exhaust it was still slower than my car (stock GS-R).

Re: Broke college students w/ Turbo Hondas & more @ the Minnesota H-T meet! (boostincoupe)
you still didnt answer my DUMB response...its a D-SERIES ENGINE!!!i guess some people just have too much money sometimes...
these are some reasons i think ya did it
1)"I like the sound of the BOV"
2)its turbo..need i say more?
3)its still a SOHC pushing about 180 whp
i seriously dont see the point in boosting a SOHC until you give me a good reason to do it

Oh boy, the good old SOHC vs. DOHC debate.
Okay well let's look at my figures. I'm making roughly 170whp @ 7 lbs. of boost with a $900 used Greddy turbo kit. That's more whp than a stock Type R motor, which costs about $5000 to get everything in and running right (bone stock too, no mods). For the cost of the Type-R motor swap and bolt ons, you could be like TurbodCX and be making 343whp @ 19 psi.
Now I know B18C5 would be nice to have, with it's 8500rpm rev limit, more torque than a stock D-Series (God I hope so for the price), awesome engine design, etc.
...but I'm making the same HP as a stock R motor and TQ as a stock H22.
For 1/5 of the price
I'm not saying SOHC is better than DOHC...I'm not stupid. I'm just saying that for the $, SOHC is the way to go (i.e. my car makes more power than ANY stock DOHC and is 1/3 to 1/5 of the price). So on you.

Yeah I'm still up in the air about the 2.5" vs. 3" debate for my car, so once I decide that I will get an exhaust. I'm actually just thinking of running a 2.5" downpipe to clear a/c, 2.5" test pipe or carsound cat, and Apexi N1 catback or something...wait I need something quiet.
