Dont worry...their not dumb questions, newbie yeah; but not dumb. 1/4 time, well that depends how good the driver is. As far as price goes...you might want to do some shopping around. Prices vary when milaege and Car Condition are taken in consideration.

Weelll. I am not a big honda fan. But they have their potentials. Yet, for out of the box power, a GSX or GST takes the cake. The GSX is a all around good car. Drivable in almost any condition. But breaken drive train parts gets expensive after racing them alot. GST's are awsome freway runners. Their good to race from a roll. Or a stop, if you know how to dive it. It depends in what you want.

visit those sites I gave you. You'll find alot of good stuff. I would stay away from a greddy system though. They pinch their piping down. roadraceengineering has a wealth of info. Go to their site, and go to site map. Read and learn, thats the way I did for the past 2 1/2 years. RSR and APEX'i are the best brand name exhaust for DSM's in my opinion.

Yes you can put an intake on a turbo car. DSM means Daimond Star Motors. I would suggest learning about the car before you start thinking about NAAWWWS. here is another good sight:
