              i'd say turbo for harwood and here's why:

              If he were to build up a motor, he'd spend almost as much on the build as a turbo kit for the stock d-series. And, knowing harwood's driving habits, he'd blow a built motor sky high because he'd miss 3-4 gear shifts and go in 2nd 😛 ...thats when all that money that he spent on the motor build went down the drain. But if he goes with a turbo kit, he can blow a motor and go get another stock one for $450 or less rather than building another one...i know that n/a would be better, but turbo would be more easier on the pocketbook in the long run (with harwood's ways heh)...that and bov's RULE! hehe

              seriously though, if it were me, i'd go turbo just because i' have the "comfort" of knowing that if a motor decides to let go for some reason all i have to do is go find another stock one for cheap...peace

              btw, WTF is harwood gonna want to do next week with his car?!?! the world will never know

                yeah that is very true but i dont think building a d-series is very expensive but who knows

                At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

                  Long runs on track+turbo=melted honda motor. Reliability is probably more important that high hp. Cant have fun if your broken.

                        Torbs, you also have to realize that a built NA motor can take more of a beating than a turbo stock motor. Plus it can rev alot higher if you buld the valve train correctly and get it ballanced. Building a d-series is really cheap.

                          i agree having lag would really suck for auto-x and road tracks. I really dont think im goin that route. Prolly NA.

                                  Could put together a safe fast spooling high revving turbo motor. 😉
                                  GT series garret turbos are pretty neat. 😉
