BahamaRicer Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 hey all, My buddy and I are working of his JDM SIR 92 civic. We are trying to decide which is the better choice, Turbo or Zex nitrous kit. Daily driver, and hoping to make it a weekend strip racer. Currently has intake and exhaust. Pros and cons of both? thanks adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VR17 Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 dont mind him.. but i agree.. all motor is more impressive then a turbo, thats just me :-" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S14Silvia Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 since no one else will state the obvious... turbo it nitrous is poop, and if you size the turbo correctly it'll be fine for a daily driver. although you will need new exhaust and that intake will go straight to the trash bin, hope you didnt recently buy those >_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carta79 Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 Nitrous is like a hot girl with STDs. You know you want to hit it but your afraid of the consequences. Yeah if you go turbo good bye to your intake/exhaust. I like all motor cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercutio Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 Turbo's are much to expensive and not worht the effort unless your running the car soley for track reasons. All motor in the end is cheaper and more reliable for a street application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S14Silvia Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 All motor in the end is cheaper and more reliable for a street application i know several people who would dispute this... besides, turbo makes more torque, and everyone knows hondas arent king of the torque pile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sup Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 Definatley get a turbo, nitrous isn't worth it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..SSR.. Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 Built N/A vs built F/I, daily driving, F/I will be more reliable as long as you don't drive it like a race car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercutio Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 The highr compression only really hurts when its being pushed too hard. Or at too high a temperature, which hurts any car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuckmofo Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 Nitrious is temporary horse power...... I would get the turbo naw dog actually i would get the NAWS and get a purge kit, z3 fenders and just use the purge kit to shoot the NAWS outta the z3 fenders..lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
