I have a 90 accord but i cant decide if i shuld go turbo or super charger what would yall go with

definitly superchargher because it's more reliable from turbo and improves your car acceleration and horsepower.

Turbo's can be extremely reliable, in fact can be more reliable than supercharger as long as you take care of your ****. Also, it all depends upon what you want the extra power for. is it drag racing? if so is it 1/8th mile or 1/4th mile, Do you want throw you in the back of your seat power? or an even power band? Do you want to be able to easily tune for more power when you get enough money to build the motor? or do you want to be stuck with what you got? i have seen SEVERAL supercharged vehicles with blown motors, And i have seen some AWESOME blown turbocharged motors. Both were because the person didn't take care of their ****. But either way it all depends upon what you are looking for. Also Turbo kits are getting cheaper and cheaper just another thing to keep in mind. If you have any more questions or want me to get more technical let me know.

Well I have an 01 Accord V6 and I have a Comptech Blower with a CLS high boost pulley and a few more fun add ons. The car is reliable if I don't get on it too much b/c of the weak transmissions in those cars... so my advice is if you want forced induction I would just go with a reputable company that knows their Hondas.
