All Motor vs. Turbo
For both cars, the DC5 and the EP, which is better?
Turbo seems all around to be good, but the DC5 responds very well to all motor upgrades (so I've heard). What do you have and what do you think?

I think most of it depends on how much power you want versus $$$ flow and dependability....
An RSX-S with a CAI, and race headr, cat-back and Toda spec-A package will end in a really well put together package....
Hit up http://www.P1auto.com and ask for Jack, he has done some Toda-A kits.
You will always get more power from a turbo, but as HP goes up, more maintenance is needed.

This is very true but theres just something about working for all motor power..
Either way, you'll be happy with the outcome of the K20

I'm all about turbos on cars that come with them stock....then upgrading...but as far as adding a turbo to a car that never came with one...I'd rather build it up as an N/A engnine.... IMO it's more efficient/reliable power. I had a turbo on my si....and it was fast as hell, but there always something to worry about, whether it's the right air/fuel mixture or intercooler piping coming undone.....IMHO I would go with the N/A setup...
all motor so when u win. you can laugh at the turbo car and say "im all motor."
then when you lose you can say. "well yer turbo and im just all motor"
j/k but alotta guys use those escuses around here.
turbo is the way to go in my book for straight line power
