Like it or not,the VTEC is still one of the best normally aspirated 2L engines around,and very reliable.
Turbo conversions are all very well,but ensuring the internals and cooling are all up to the job,plus the cost of a suitable turbo,exhaust and mapping generally make it a bit of a non-starter compared with starting on a turbo engine from the outset.
As an example,I'd never have considered a supercharger or twin turbo kit for the A3 3.2 I used to own...too many areas to attend to,and even those who've done it concede the costs are often unreasonable.
Far better to leave it as it is,and enjoy it,plus it will retain resale value,whereas a converted one won't. |
