Haha, nope my Honduh won't be getting a turbo, it if ever gets boost it will be a supercharger (unlikely on this one too). Turbos change the characteristics of what makes the car so great.

I could have gotten a Goat brand new for less than I paid used and had gobs of wheel spinning action....no thanks, I'll keep my amazingly fun torqueless-wonder :D

The characteristics I was referring to were mainly instant responsivness and the way the powerband comes on.

yeah, thats definitely a fun, unique thing about nicely tuned honda engines. you should go ITB's and spray some nitrous :)

HaHaHa!! I don't think the CRV would do very good in rally. It would be fun to do though.

Nope and nope; #1 is nowhere near practical for a daily-driver (although it has been done), and #2 I've just never been a fan of nitrous. Not to mention I'm trying to curb my spending on car-mods, sticking to just a few things here and there. I don't want it turning into what my Talon did. That lost its appeal to me about 2 years ago.

haha, alright man... didnt know you weren't looking to mod it altogether, thats obviously a whole different story. And a nicely tuned ITB setup with stack filters is just fine for daily driving :) Unfortunately your car in stock form isnt much to brag about, but if thats what youre going for, then awesome. I think most of us get sick of unreliability and just want a reliable, nice, fun car to get to work and back.

ive personally never been a fan of nitrous either, but my civic is getting a small shot to spool the turbo just so i can be that much better of a track queen :)
