Turbos are the best.

There are a lot more plumbing and hardware expenses involved in turbocharging a car, but the only kind of refill you ever need is the kind you get at the gas station.

If you want a full debate on the subject it has already been done here before so please refer to the thread below so we don't have to rehash this subject all over again.

they both have pros and cons, turbo=heat, extra weight from plumbing, and tune
nawz= cool, less fuel consumption, less weight, but the bottle runs out, might need tune if shot is big.....


it is a question that cant be answered by fact, only opinion.....

Nawz to spool

Turbo to decimate all



Can't beat the sound of a turbo. I will never go back.
But you're 16 so you probably need to do A LOT of RESEARCH before you do either. There's alot to learn. Otherwise either one will make your car go BOOM!

i personally perfer turbo may add weight but so does that heavy ass bottle and turbo is consistent you get a feel for driving it as to where with now you would be refilling it all the time to use it regular enough to be functional.

Its rather...
Turbo=uses exhast...not heat..(just happen to be heat)

yes Turbo will weigh more..but you are tring to compare 2 totally diffrent things..

Compare Turbo/Supercharger....

N20 is just a quick fix..till your bottle runs out..

I have to say ..2001+ Civics are trash...You waisted alot of money on a sh1t box..now you want to dump more money to get it to stay in the 15s...lol

ASK the people at Hondaland who *sponsor you..
