They do in Japan (mechanics that is)....we arent that far behind in Aus are we?
Woudl you recommend that I do the sort of things you have on your prelude instead - exhast, flywheel, tunning/Computer adjustment, sparks, wheels etc instead to get a bit more poke?

And what do you mean by "we are behind because our Honda dealer doesnt do this"?

that's the issue, there is no honda turbo. there's also a lot of custom work involved and honda workshops are only for servicing, not custom parts fabrication

they do here too but you're looking at extreme dollah, plus nobody has really done it yet so it'll be very experimental. i would recommend doing all the NA upgrades first, yes

Sport or Lux what do you all think; I need a gps so I have to go lux, unless I suppose I caould plug my Galazy Nexus phone in as it has a nice gps?...

Anyone know if there is decent room in the engine bay for a turbo?

May as well go the Supercharger route it sound like Honda are going for?

Do you think will Honda do this for me so the warrenty is still valid?

Perhaps I will contact honda and as them for a Supercharger and tell them they can decal my car with HONDA CR-V and I will drive it around the city alot...that get me a discount do you think?

On your other point; I haven't seen any CR-Zs at all, on the web though I have seen a CR-Z with nearly 400hp and wow it sounded 'sweet'(don't use kw's myself yet)! Still got good milage (kilometerige?!) too!

Where do you work, do you want to sell me a Black Lux auto with a Tbo or SprCrg?

So Honda dont make turbos OK whats so funny, we dont have 'Mugen' sp? or any company accociated with Honda for tunning in Aus? .....didn't the K23 have a turbo, does the only thing Honda Aus do is use Australian parts, they cant ship over Japensese parts for fss?

It turns out Honda garages are just for servicing and not for modifications or imporving your car, I really can't ask them to put a new exhaust on?

I am sure I could of spent some time trawling the net but you guys are car nuts right; and know these things quicker then I can get the full answer?

You need some dentistry work.

I need a turbo CR-Z

OK thank you, other upgrades first then, its not hard for the rest of you to be reasonable you know!

People have done it just not in Australia, by the sounds of it, given they are only just out.

How old are you sw444 ?

Late thirties you?

Whats you IQ Tai?

Theyre just hazing you since youre new,try to ignore it
