An open deck block doesn't lend itself well to 30+psi of boost. Just because I'm not fond of hondas doesn't mean I haven't looked into what it takes to build one....they have some of the best stock flowing heads ever....not sure how the valvetrain reacts with forced induction...and hondata is relatively cheap compared to other engine management systems.

    Oh yeah, lets not forget....you get to start from scratch building a turbo kit....after you've built the engine......yeah, doesn't sound expensive to me at all....hell , I'll build me one for $19.95 tomorrow
    my setup is almost as much as a 240 and a sr20 combined.i would say my setup costed me about $5000-$6000 which includes car, turbo, pistons and rods..hell... you dont need to get sleeves, pistons and rods... lets see there are people who has made 500-650whp on stock honda motors (not locally )... let alone one of our first motor made 570whp stock....

    open deck not good for boost? say that most people making over 500hp on open deck....

    Honda stock valve train works pretty well with boost....

    oh... i wish it was $19.95
