2.2 Turbo..?

I was looking at MSN Carpoint, comparing my cars to some of my friends. Down where the catigory of base engine starts theres is a stat called "Turbo/ SuperCharger" It said the 2.2 had a Turbo. Comparing my cars to Nissans and such, I thought MSN was just considering V-Tec as the turbo thing. But then when I went and compared my 2.2 with my Friends 2.3..there was no Turbo for his..I dun know much about cars..hehe..workin' on it..but wondering whats up..?

Acura/Honda does not offer a turbo option in their cars.

MSN Carpoint includes that category for those cars that have turbos as standard equipment or as an option; like the Subaru WRX.

It's a mistake. If you look for the 1997 3.0CL, you'll see that the curb weigth for the auto is listed under the manual curb weight category (3219 lbs). They DIDN'T make a manual 3.0CL!

Just another example of the mistakes that can be found on MSN Carpoint.

You just have to find the right dealer. I had a heck of a time finding mine.

Sorry buddy Honda has a strict policy about being all motor cars. You won't find any Honda or Acura from the factory that comes with a turbo. However, this doesn't mean that you can't install one yourself like niedejb did, though it'll cost you a couple grand.
Where in NC are you from anyway?
