Yeah they will make a lot more power for sure and they sound cool. =) (I just like to piss of the neighbors.)

I still like the superchargers due to heating issues, extra wear from turbo kicking in and out, and boost through out the range. Superchargers (centrif) also have power inline with rpm which is better for drivetrain components (roots less so).

I suppose you could argue this one either way. =) I think turbos are cool, I just wouldnt really want one on a daily driver (personal preference), even knowing I will get less of a kick in the pants. But Honda does have a close relationship with Comptech -- superchargers, so thats also encouraging for me.

Cant wait to get my Comptech SC -- if I can ever find one for a decent price!!
