That means that they are pretty new Honda's, cars that actually look good, and are new and smell good inside!.
2nd.. About that 282whp. you should rethink that question.. People that have 7th gens and have body kits have those cars for looks... People dont just spend alomst 17-18 thousand dollars on a car there are going to fuck up and gut them inside . So thats why if you slap a turbo in em and run 7psi's.. You'll be in that line,. Where you car most likely looks good, A/C works. Power windows,etc.. So with a lil boost you'll be walking b16's << header exahust intake.
And another one... If you think this guy wanted to Hit 282whp.. I doubt he would be asking US for what kinda turbo or swap he should get.....
I would more then likley think he would be telling you...!
Not to be a dick but I really don't know what you are getting at with this post at all. As i mentioned many threads ago, most car enthusiasts don't touch their car once and than call it a day. You might think that you are going to strap on a turbo and than you will be happy forever but that isn't the case. Nine times out of ten you will be looking to do something again within a year or so. At that point he will be stuck with a d17 with not many options, and not many people who have made more power reliably. Could this be why you are selling your own?
To recap:
-Which path makes a little more power at first? The turbo kit....in most cases.
-Which one costs more? From what i've heard, they are extremely similar.
-Which one has way more potential down the road? The k20 swap
-Which one is more reliable? The k20 swap
-Which one comes with a gorgeous 6-speed tranny? The k20 swap
