You be slower than the prelude and all V6 accords. Identical to the 4 bangers. You need a new motor or car to go fast.

the v6 accords can pretty much compare with the 3.0's unless you are talking about the 240hp motor!

You can turbo anything...Hell, maybe even my toilet. Its just a matter of how long before it breaks and if even that will provide enough power to ATLEAST get into the 13s.

Leave turbos for cars built with turbos...Unless you're building up your engine first to compensate.

got rice it also depends on how much psi that helps determine the duration of the engine!

thats obvious...But if you're only gonna run like 3 psi, why do a turbo in the first place?
