That engine you can pick up for $400-$500.
That turbo kit which did 275rwhp/262ftlbs that day after tuning will run you $3000 with full 3" exhaust from the turbo back and 18x12x3 core FMIC
Other costs like ECU, injectors, clutch you will will need anyway for your NA build.
Wanna buy one?

how are the graphs skewed? They are proportionate. What it does illustrate is that two cars with the same peak HP can be two totally different machines. It also illustrates that small N/A motors sucks.

To me, that is what peaky is, not making any power until WAAAAY up there. I thought you were trying to argue that the Honda was a "steady beast." I think we are trying to say the same thing, but from different points of view and with different terminology.
I too would much rather have a turbo 4 with torque all over the place than the stretched out powerband of the Honda. This is why I pointed out how important the area under the curve was, not for you, but for the less educated, like supernoob here.
I second the act.
