HMT Ridgeline....maybe

HMT Ridgeline....maybe
I have been toying with the idea of HMT'ing a turbo for my Ridgeline. I figure it will be something like STS turbos, mount the turbo at the rear or underneath the vehicle. I've got to do some calculating to get the turbo sized properly, and also figure out how to manage the fuel. The Ridgeline is coil on plug, so there's no distro to adjust timing. Also, there aren't any ECU upgrades out there yet, and on top of all that..the motor is 10:1 comp. I'm thinking of running a 4-5 psi setup with a fmu.
I've personally seen a Pilot engine handle a 100 shot, so surely it can handle a few pounds of boost.
anyone know the injector flow rate on the ridgeline?

I'd try to fix the ugliness of the Ridgeline before I tried to make it faster. Honda makes baby jesus cry when he thinks about the Ridgeline.

If you want to a truck to mod, buy a turbo diesel.
If you want a truck to drive around the city, tow the kids, and carry a couch, buy a ridgeline.
