My little brother and I were arguing last night about the possibility of some kinda FI option from Honda. I think there's a slight possibility. He told me that the Honda reps told him there's no plans for it. What do you guys think? Maybe a supercharger on an Si as an option?

FWD with a lot of Torque I don't think Honda will make something like that. Variable valve timing is hondas thing they won't turbo or supercharge. I heard the old Acura Legend was turbo though, but it was probabaly RWD.

Your right about the Legend, but I heard turbo and RWD somewhere. I guess I was half asleep or something when I heard it cause it doesn't really make sense.

Most FWD sport compact Hondas I see usually don't have a lot of torque but there still fast. So I'm not sure about them having crazy torque numbers. Maybe too much torque on FWD car reduces handling .

they dont have much torque cus its a 4 cylinder. and alot of torque would affect steering with whats called "torque steer" basically when you stand on it off the line the wheels jerk to one side. but most companies are able to reduce that problem to almost nothing
