If thats the case you might as well stay stock and get a good tune on it and it'll hold up just fine. Now this isin the aspect of you maintane the car and dont beat the shit out of the car daily.

Well... there seems to be something wrong with thier cars then... There ar literally thousands of turbocharged honda's running just fine... with considerably more boost then 7psi. If you just bolt a turbo kit on, have no prior knowledge of it, i can see them making a mistake.

Forced Induction is the way to go to make real power out of a honda for the smallest amount of $$$. Nitrous or Turbo... Superchargers are hella expensive... and don't yield the results that N2o or Turbo's will.

Who told you you can only run 5psi? I did a kit on a GSR that has been running 9-10 psi/low 13's for almost 2 years now w/o any mechanical problems. So idk where you get your info but you might wanna do a little more research before giving others false advice. The internet is NOT always the best place for information. Half the time the guy giving the advice is dumber then the guy reading it....

Research it, build yourself a custom kit! Or, talk to Nick (PSI2HI) about building a setup for you.

Nitrous is an option but its a perpetual payment to refilland it will take its toll on your motor.

Basic DRAG turbo kits have put GSR's into the low 13's high 12's.
