Umm. Honda said they didn't want to dip into it. They are into making economic cars not performance ones. Exception being the S2000 and the NSX. Old news, question has been asked for a long time. Wont happen anytime soon. Sorry man.
Cocky guys kick ass!

if they all have em stock, what makes em special? i'd rather have to customize a slow car to be fast than to just buy it fast. unless it's a lambo or somethin. lol.

Well if you are truly trying to make it fast then start out with a non-turbo car that's fast. Not a non-turbo slow car.
The stock turbos *usually* aren't all that. For the car to be a lot faster you have to slap on a bigger turbo so it's just redundant.

Honda makes a few turbo cars over in the land of the rising sun, of course most of them are 3 cyl with 50hp.
Hondas an NA company, and they are pretty damn good at what they do too; when you look at NA HP per liter, theyve got every other mainstream mass production company beat.
Hell even EX civics make 74.7 hp per liter, thats impressive when you realize: The new viper makes 60.8, and the Z06 makes 70.1.
S2000s make 110hp per liter....
NSXs make 90
So as a vastly NA company, Honda rules.

remember this?
oh yeah and i totally agree, Honda is one of the best manufacturers to take the NA route, similar to how BMW is with their engines. Take a look at their M3: 333 HP from an inline 6 NA.
Honda even races in Formual 1 and other openwheel races with NA engines. from the 2004 S2000 booklet, they are running some open wheel series on a completely New V8 NA, no turbos here.
