gary1mc Posted May 3, 2013 Author Share Posted May 3, 2013 Looks like it's unanimous boost is the way to go Are there any links on the forum for some info on what's needed to strengthen the internals I know the standard engine can take limited boost but I would like to make it safe long term if I go for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAVEMB2 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 N/A. Coz everyone can do boost do b20 come guys there are so many F/I Hondas and think about the lag and the hit when the boost comes in new tyres every 5 mins But at the end of the day it's so much easier to F/I and get power of less cash N/A you realy need to be a bit coz a lot of work and tweaking to get less But the way power comes in N/A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
