I dont think Honda is going to be releasing a turbocharged engine anytime soon. There all about ecconomy right now with the new hydrogen cars and what not...

I dont see why they can just design a kit for say an accod (just an example i know most of you have CRXs. make a different ECU for it tuned to perfection and just offer it as an option. I mean imagine the new accord V6 6 speed on 15 lbs of boost!!! it would be crazy

looks like a d17 but it's a dohc! look at the 2 cam seals on the head. specs prove it too.

hey jeff, looks like honda copied your zc race manifold and made it cast. i knew they were watching HMT.

Don't think that turbo would do very good for a home kit cause look at the way the flange is. I guess you could just weld the flange on a different way but still it's a factory turbo'd D! Since it's still a D series block and dohc it could be the rebirth of the dohc zc!

Are you referring to which way the crank spins? All Honda motors spin the "wrong" way except for some of the newer ones. EDIT: notice my quotes. If you build an engine, you can spin it any way you want as long as it turns the wheels the right way.

ummmm.. you mean all of the new ones. and it's not the "wrong" way, just not the same direction as most traditional engines
