OMG, please PLEASE for the love of all that is good DO NOT DO A CONVERSION. If you want an RSX, save up your coin and buy one...

as far as a turbo goes.. do it right, sleeve it (the block) get forged internals and boost the FOOK out of it (with proper tuning and fuel mgmt of course). Otherwise boost it with 5-7psi and get that b***h tuned RIGHT.

read under it, he gives directions to the turbo page. it would have just been easier to link to that though.
