    i would go vortech for a honda. more R&D involved. prochargers werent meant for 4 bangers. but if i were you i would go turbo like said above. it much cheraper and makes just as much power. also with ball bearing turbos these days you dont really have to worry about lag as much anymore. get alil gt25rs run like 8-10 psi and have fun. plus a SC will just make you break tire thru 3rd gear beacause of the almost instant torque, unless your into that.

    i could be wrong on this, but i didnt thing the cintrifugal superchargers have that instant torque. Dont they gain boost gradually as the rpms get higher so they end up actually feeling kinda laggy??
    I have seen some good numbers on those vortech superchargers tho

    the cintrifugal superchargers do feel kinda laggy but the vortech makes 277whp on 7 to 8 psi the procharger doest make as much but its still impressive the most ive seen out of a turbo on 8 psi is 240whp run by hondata

    that is because of volume, not just pressure.
