Didnt wanna clutter another thread with more off topic-ness.

Kind of curious who agrees with this statement from the other thread

On your F/i setup, it's VERY important to build that bottom end and top. Having a balance to run the turbo. Because you will blow something if you're running to high and something isn't built. Of course you know that tuning is key since you're boosted.

Of course I meant once you're getting up there.
I know a stock Honda can take it. I never said it couldn't, what is your debate?
It all depends how much.

Tuning is key, am I wrong?
For the head to remain fairly reliable with less chances of jacking it up. I really don't understand your debate here.

I spose just be careful with them ebay turbos. Those seals dont like pressure at all :D

My roomate started his and just drove it down the street and his seals blew.

Nowadays you can find used turbos for a good price however. I strongly recommend it.

and a thumbs up on the crower cam idea, though Id throw them in even for 350whp haha.
