It says " X5 Acura Powered Twin Turbo Engine Delivers the Power and then-some!" in one of the pics... I can't see a pic of the engine, but I think it's the 3.2 from the TL most likely... If only we could get 420hp out of our engines (and be street legal)

18 PSI by Tirbo on CL and you would have a 400 HP engine!

hey, i found a site like that a while ago. It has ome cool pics of the engines too. The engines are 3.2L and 3.5L and have a turbo charger. Take a look, but I don't think this would fit under our hoods!

There's no Honda motor (right now) I think that with stock internal parts that could take 400 HP.
300 HP yes(a stock 3.2 will take 300 HP)
but even a 3.5 He'd have to get forged everything and a custom crank and that's crazy money:P

how do i know that I worked at Honda for a total of 6 months and dad works at Honda for 20 years.

There's not many cars out of the factory that you can run a butt load of boost with stock pistons(like 15 lbs of boost) and crank and con-rods. it can be done but not very many cars can do it. most cars stock internals will take only about 10 lbs of boost.
the reason i said this I'm helping my friend build up his turbo EXP.

he just rebuilt his road motor(which is mostly stock parts) (theres a few good fast parts but 90% stock) we're running 10 psi pretty steady with stock parts.

we pulled a junkyard motor for his race motor and putting forged everything in the bottom end.(a new custom forged crank for him is 2000 bucks ) but once we get the race motor together and put in we'll be running 15 lbs of boost.

no offence to the supercharger guys but he told me the most psi i can flow with almost any supercharger is like 6-7 lbs of boost

I'm not sure if anyone noticed, but one of those engines in the pic is the 3.5L from the Honda Odyssey minivan.
