Default 08 Accord Turbo or Supercharger?

I have a 08 Accord coupe V6 and I want to have a lot more power off the line. I don't care too much for the top end (anything 100+mph), so let me know what things I could do to help achieve this. I'm more concerened with the hp/tourque gain over the gas mileage. I also my be running a hydrogen generator and would like to know if that is ok with a turbo/supercharger. Let me know what your oppinions are.

I have no idea what a hydrogen generator is but a 100% custom supercharger or turbo will easily blow $10,000 out of your pocket once complete. Of course you will have zero warranty on anything except maybe the tires. I don't even know if it is at all possible to turbo the 3.5 because the exhaust manifolds are part of the block. Hope you've got really deep pockets.

^^ It's possible, but takes a lot of research. There is a company that makes turbos that bolt in place of the muffler. They use totally different AR's and trim due to the cooler exhaust gas, but anything is possible!

STS was what came to mind to me as well. The Fidanza 'Vette is powered by twin STS turbos mounted by the rear wheels...

Somewhere between $6k and $20k. Why don't you send them an email?
