    adding to connor's post, ther eare 2 ways of having high hp - by either having a crazy redling and no torque, or a low redline and heaps of torque. (i.e. a little honda vs a lazy v8)

    If i have minimal torque until 7000 RPM, I could have the same power output as a v8 but be heaps slower, so the shape of the torque curve is important, moreso than the peak hp curve. Much like how you consider the RMS power output of a speaker rather than the peak

    The torque curve is what you feel on the road

Or does it have to be like a specific brand that I have to buy that will only suit my car? I would search this on Google before asking but I already did it and it didn't really help. Also, how will I know if day someone was to offer to sell me a turbo kit and he said it will fit on my car. How can I assure that it will? Cause I have no ideas on turbos etc . Thanks again! Sorry to be a pain guys.
    I think if this is your understanding of turbo's...

    you need to do a LOT more research instead of just asking other people's opinions.

    It would do you well to pick up a turbo101 book and learn about how they actually work, which will help you understand what will or won't fit.

    It's pointless to ask, 'will a gt28 or a t517z or a t04 fit my car because x y z' because you need to factor in housing size, manifold size, internal or external gate, clearance, ETC.

    Do yourself a favor and read up on existing build things on team-integra for much useful info.

    I think looking at area under the hp and torque curves are the best induction rather than peak
