A turbocharged vehicle if put together right can be just as reliable as stock. It will require more up keep, but can be just as reliable as a stock car. And he probably can beat most swapped h22's and gsr's. A
conservative turbo set-up on a sohc would put down around 250whp. That is more than enough to beat any h22 or gsr from Honda.
