Of course, it's about $4500 for the hardware alone... installation is going to be *easily* $1000. (I don't feel comfortable doing something that large-scale by myself). My suspension is going to be about half that.
The real question is... do I stay NA, or go FI? If I get the Hondata reflash in NA mode, I'm paying *again* to have it reflashed for FI mode, which is about $500.
NA == naturally aspirated, which is "normal" for the majority of the cars on the road.
FI == forced induction, which is either a turbo or supercharger. It forces air into the engine, generating *much* more horsepower.
The problem is that the good engine mods for an NA car are counter productive to one that has FI, so you have to think about the investment. (you'd have to replace prettymuch everything)

I've got this super-boner for superchargers.
eeeexcellent!

I always wondered how easy it would be to get a few more PSI out of the stock Mini-S supercharger.
