I would go greddy turbo or jackson supercharger. You can get alot of power with the Greddy turbo and the hondata flash. I've heard of people getting 300 HP and thats pretty good for a daily driver.

get BLOWN!
think outside the box and get a supercharge from jacksonracing. Its easier to maintain, guaranteed 100,000 mile warranty, and you won't be like everyone else

when it comes to performance you actually think that way? you actually want to be different? i think that is silly. if you want proven power, use a setup that has made that power.
on a side note, i've read about horrible customer service from jackson racing.
with greddy their service is great

Go for the Jackson Racing Supercharger. Seen a graph of a CTR EP3 running 200bhp at the wheels with no mods to the ECU and running low boost. Article claims that with an uprated belt and replacement Hondata ECU 300bhp at the wheels is easily achievable.

Re: turbo or supercharger (mox1)
are you in a base model or type-s? if base swap your motor first k20a for 4650 shipped japanstarmotors.com, or i would go jrsc so you can get the reliablity with the stock internals

Re: turbo or supercharger (the giant EP3)
If you are going turbo... why would you want to swap a base engine for a higher compression engine? The lower compression would allow you to boost more and therefore, provide more potential with stock internals...
However, if money is no object, then it really doesn't matter because you will eventually wind up building a new block anyways.
