[QUOTE="bbka, post: 2162038, member: 570536"] Personally I hate small turbos, fast spool equals tire spin on FWD hondas with dinky tires. I like a good kick in the *** when boost hits, I have driven an SRT4 and it's nowhere near as fun or fast as my car. Hondas are all top end and have bad traction already, so more low end power isn't always a good idea. I have troubles with my 200whp honda if I'm not on my drag radials, and 300+ whp is impossible to get traction unless you have a switch to go from low to high boost. I would use nothing less than a T3 60 trim .60/.48 on a d-series motor (what I currently have and is perfect for my d16z6). There is a noticeable difference between that and a T3 .42/.48. For a basic system though any small turbo will work (DSM T25 or 14B work well and are cheap, 100 bucks). A gt28rs would be sweet, but they are kinda expensive. No way it would spool by 2k though on a d-series motor, here's a good thread for example of a gt28rs on a d16 though...
