you can get all kinds of power with turbo...depending on what mods and how must you're boosting. some ppl get up to 400-500 while others go 200-300 for streetability. it's highly recommended that you do some internal mods if you're going FI so as to not blow the car up. price wise...anywhere from 2000-5000

fmax kit=$3500
internals=lets say $2000
turbo stuff(gauges)etc=$1000
installation by a shop=$800-1500
i was just talking about the turbo itself. including everything else....you better really want to keep a lude to go faster.
a guy just posted on HP.com that he dynoed his turboed Frankenstein 2.3 vtec at 552whp at 25psi. Holy ****!! Here
So, yes, you can get a lot of freaking power out of these here Honda engines.
Daaaaaaaaaaaaammmmmnnnnnnn!
u can get like a drag or fmax and boost at 6-8psi and not have to rebuild ur internals or just get some nos for that extra kick in the pants when u want it feelilng.
