have to say im very impressed with that engines ability to take a decent sized turbo and get abused consistantly during drifting and it hasnt thrown a rod/ melted a piston. U gota love honda for the pure rapeability of some of their engines.

Unfortunaly your right... honda does make a good engine...
but just that.

Jonathan's engine is also a stocker .. for now, he pulled of a cheap shitter turbo off and bolted on a Garrett GT3076R now running 7psi and making 260kw... and making boost sooner. he's looking to to some more work to it in the "off" season.
