this question has been asked on every honda board since their creation. the question is: what do YOU want to do? we aren't driving your car so all you'll get from us is just our opinions. refer to dave's post...

and by "built," you are meaning built for a turbo setup correct? i hate hearing people say "i'm gonna slap some toda spec-III cams in dat bitch, high compression pistions, etc" and then "t03/04E turbo!!!"

falsest statement of false statements. a turbo setup won't ruin your motor unless you ignore the tuning requirement. too often i see people bolt on a turbo kit and call it a day. then a few months later they are having severe problems. you can make a turbo as a reliable as the naturally aspirated counterpart.

diff'rent strokes for diff'rent folks. i know people that went from a turbo setup to a fully-built N/A setup...
