if you rebuild the motor then i would go the turbo route. if you are just looking for boost i would get a jackson racing supercharger and run like 5 psi because the kit is actualy ment for a b18c5

I don't like relying on water/meth. If it fails, kaboom.

Boosting a C5/ITR is stupid IMO
just put a type r trans on a poor mans type r motor (b18c1 block/b16a head) and youll make a lot more useable power reliably.

RE: b18c5 turbo hatch
Type R trans is just a bad idea overall. The gearing is waaaaayyy too short for what you're going to be trapping, not to mention it's going to make for all kinds of traction issues.

The gearing on my Si is rediculously short. Like at 80 mph im doing 4-5 rpms in 5th gear!

Meh, if you're worried about one thing failing with catestrophic results, you've gotten into the wrong hobby.

Apples and oranges. No amount of wishful thinking is going to change the fact that water and methanol injection systems are unreliable.

I appoloigize, I keep forgetting that you're the authority on ALL THINGS AUTOMOTIVE these days.. gimme a break
Yes, I will tell everyone the same thing. If you're going to be a bitch, and worry about every little thing all the time, then you shouldn't be tuning cars, end of story.
As for water/meth, it's still being developed, everything sucks in it's early stages.
