Racing Rice is correct about the 140 hp to the wheels on a otherwise stock civic ex with the jackson charger....but that is on a all stock motor besides the fuel pump (got to get that at least) but if you have an intake and a decent exhaust that number goes up very quickly (closer to 155ish hp) the supercharger is the cheap way to go on the ex....buy the supercharger and the fuel pump and your done....the turbo would make more hp on the ex but only because you can turn up the boost.....but then again you have to pay a little more for the turbo set up (unless someone cuts you a good deal on all the stuff needed for the turbo set up)....if I were you.....I would save the 2000+ dollers and get a b16a2 instead of a turbo or a supercharger...a stock b16a2 puts down the same hp numbers as a 6 psi turboed or 6 psi supercharged d16...and the good thing about that...you would still have the realiblity as your stock motor now....
