Thinking about putting a turbo in

Any advice how to go about this and the cost.
Is it better to buy it online and have a custom car place install it?
Also what are the pros and cons.

I don't think they make a kit for the TSX. A custom setup is likely $5-10k. The downside is a huge drop in reliability...the amount of reliability loss is depending on how much you spend and how well its set up.

Its probably also going to require a lot of research on your end.

I asked RV6 Performance about their turbo kit and they said it's still a work in progress. They've been getting slammed developing and getting stuff out for the new Civic.
