Default Turbo in 6th Gen V6 - Advice Needed

This spring I would like to do a custom turbo setup. Im looking to push around 5-6 psi, since its a daily driver, and I dont have the funds, to rebuild the bottom end, and i dont think the transmission can handle much more than this. What advice can you guys give me as far as product companies that are well made for blow off valves, turbo timers, the turbo, etc. Any and all information related, Id really apperciate. Thanks.

theres been turbo v6 6th gens and i believe all of those have broken our trannys. If you want boost look into the comptech supercharger. Theres been v6 accords pushing 271 wheel HP with some upgrades to the supercharger so look in to that. But if your dead set on a turbo, do a search on http://www.v6performance.net , there will be some info there.

A supercharger is probably harder on a tranny so it doesn't make sense.
