Default did you know honda produced a turbo legend as an option

In 1989, Honda made a version of the first-generation Legend that included a unique turbo charger called a "Wing Turbo". The turbo was unique due to its use of Variable Turbine Geometry, making it one of the few production cars to ever utilize this technology. This turbo was paired with the C20A engine to produce 142 kW (193 PS; 190 bhp) net at 6000 rpm and a maximum torque of 24.6 kg·m (241 N·m; 178 ft·lbf) at 3500 rpm.[1] In Japan, this engine was offered in vehicles labeled as "2.0 Ti Exclusive" and "2.0 Ti".

This engine was not offered for sale in any USA-spec Honda vehicle.

probably the smallest v6 ever made but does have some balls

engine specs:
engine: C20A turbo V6 SOHC 24 valve PGM-FI

Displacement (cc) / bore×stroke: 1,996cc / 82.0×63.0

Horsepower: 190 PS (140 kW; 190 hp) @6000rpm

Torque: 241 N·m (178 lb·ft) @3500rpm

Ive allways wanted to see one of des motors and now i introduce you to da C20AT...............http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/JDM-1...item3ef9a85088

Wow 2002 just called...they want their "BIG NEWS" back

Naw in all seriousness the car and engine are a great example of Honda's forward thinking engineering of the day...

And we have at least three members on here that actually own these car's too ya know...if you ever find yourself with some downtime, hit the G1 section once in a while...don't worry...Redtube will still be there when you get back
