You'll probably lose some of the low end torque if you up the compression mind (from looking at my dyno print out against those with the same cams and 11:1)

Low compression and ATR cams, I'm sure that would respond very well to a turbo kit :think:
PAW rebuilt 98 prelude 228bhp & 171lb/ft R.I.P.
PAW rebuilt 01 ATR 238bhp & 164lb/ft sold
Monte Carlo Blue 02 S2K :D

I replied to your txt mate, I ordered the oil on wed and still nothin they've assured me it will be here today


Alex, my thoughts exactly! Is there such a thing as a reliable turbo build for these engines with standard internals? Don't fancy sinking 10k into it jus yet :lol:

Mines still going strong on half a bar wastegate spring ;) Had 2 small problems 1 was a boost pipe splitting as it was rubber and not silicone and a few gaskets like vtec solenoid and oil cooler o ring :D

Just do it, get it tuned good and reliability can be had you shall not be disappointed 8-)
