With N/A, it's a fine-tuned process that could take years to perfect and a whole lot of green.

I've built and now I'm turboing. mmmmm boost. :drool:
That i'll agree with. Slap on a turbo and get great results. But how long will it last. I would follow your lead. Build first then boost. Had a 350 SB dynoed at 525 hp to the crank. 12000 rpm. Balanced and guarentee not to blow at any point below that. Thats the fun of a N/A engine. Learned a few thing along the way. Did not break the bank. Had more problems with u-joints and drive lines.

boosted hondas are fun as all hell cost to much to be done right espessially b-series, d-series are cool just cause if you blow em there cheap to replace. N/A is the best route for hondas b series motors IMO, honesetly how many boosted hondas do you see on the tracks of japan. dont get me wrong i love boosted cars (espessially hondas done right) but i think a honda built N/A is awsome just because you dont need a turbo to go fast in one.

this is just my opinion and is why im going N/A with my car, if i wanted a turbo car i'da bought a nissan, which i want someday
