there you go theres some pics...my car is slow as balls i will be the first to admit it, but im tired of seeing guys w/ stock honda civics putting gigantic turbos on their cars and only running 6-8psi of boost, that will never be able to benefit from the power it has to offer. i have seen your car dyno before 680hp..im impressed but why dont you do some searching before you tell me to search on honda-tech. im planning on upgrading the turbo on my car once i finish building another motor but for now the T25 is fine on my car daily driven w/ 155k miles, its fun to drive and pretty reliable despite the fact its a turbo honda. this guy was asking for a good turbo for a daily driver not trying to break any records. hondas will never be the fastest cars...no matter how fast you make it, it still front wheel drive and an economy car at heart..you always have to remember that.
his car never made 680hp, lol. Honda's can be fast, fwd's can be fast look at lis kubo's FWD Saturn.... its a commuter turned drag car.

I know what you you're saying about guys running huge turbos and only pushing 8psi... its just a waste. But just because its stock doesnt mean it can not withstand alot of power.

If the origianl poster wants something "FUN" on the street, nothing is more fun than a 300whp civic. Not only that, if he wants real quick response and only what 8psi, then he might as well get a supercharger. One of my friends have a supercharged d16z and it was run, felt like a h22 hatch less the topend power. turbo is best if you get one with good topend, but if you want lowend, i say get a bigger motor or supercharge for off idle power.
