Huge turbos can make massive power as well dude.. More than our engines can support..

If we are going stock for stock.. example D16a6 turbo or supercharged.. their is no comparison.. with a properly sized turbo, and a nice fmic. The d16a6 would walk all over a JRSC A6.

They are slow as ---- on imports, I have drove 1 JRSC GSR, 1 JRSC D16a6 and got 1 ride with a Vortech B16a SI. The only one that felt good was the vortech setup.

well i believe you but if you read over my post i said tubines make more power :P

i've never driven a supercharged honda so i wouldn't know. but i still like the idea of low and top end power.

It really depends on personal preference I think. I've driven a Pontiac GTP and I really like when you hit the gas around turns you had no lag and the tires would just spin and spin. On the other hand, I was in the GTP when we raced a slightly modded WRX and it kicked our *** top-end. I love both superchargers and turbos, but I think for Hondas that turbos are better suited.

turbos are best on 4 cyclindars and v6's while superchargers are for v8's
