Super Street answered my question in a big way!!!

I sent Super Street an e-mail about 3 weeks ago asking them a question about 2 different turbo kits for the new Acura RSX and I had not heard back from them. And so I thought they were just to busy to answer it, so I gave up on it. Well, tonight me and Mike went to 7eleven at about 3am and I got the magazine. Well, when we got home I started to read through it and the letter I sent to them through e-mail well THEY PUBLISHED IT IN THE MAGAZINE in their TECH Q&A column. Well, my letter was chosen as "Honda Optional Equipment Question of the Month."
This is what they wrote before my question, and it has nothing to do with the answer to the question, it is just saying that I was selected as letter of the month.
This month Jalal gets a prize for being the Honda Optional Equipment Question of the Month. We don't have his address, so he gets nothing. Maybe we'll just e-mail it to him. Actually we'll give the prize to anybody who can pronounce his name properly within two tries. John Naderi will be the referee."
Dude I flipped a shit when I read that, I am SOOOO FRIGGIN HAPPY. Tell everyone you know and buy the new August issue of Super Street. Never in my right mind would i ever imagine this happening!!! Its great!!!

This is the letter i sent to Super Street! Tell me what you think!
I am thinking about buying an Acura RSX Type-S. I know that I can get some power from it with basic bolt ons. I was thinking more along the lines of just about every other import tuner out there.... TURBO! Now getting to my question, I have read about both HKS and GReddy and how they plan on releasing a turbo kit for the RSX. I have read many letters from readers in your magazine about the GT2835 turbo and you guys have had nothing but good things to say about it. So my question is, which is a better turbo kit for the new RSX Type-S: HKS whcih uses the GT2835? or the Greddy which uses the Mitsubishi TDO5H-18G? Which would produce more power and spool up quicker, and which one has better throttle response? I could probably go to a shop and ask them the same question, but i would better rely on your magazines expertise. If you come to the conclusion and feel that both of these turbos are pretty much the same than please tell e what you personally would pick. Any help you guys could give me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again.
-Jalal
