[B]The drag kit uses a smaller less efficient turbo... has a smaller (ie. less efficient) intercooler and has enough piping to build an overseas pipeline and is only $1K less than a Speedcraft kit.

SpeedCraft - Current dyno numbers with 8 psi: 320 HP with 212 torque.
DRAG - With the boost upped to 8lbs Bird has hit 325 hp at the wheels
I'm just curious since theres not a lot of information out on the DRAG kit.

There's no way that the DRAG kit jumped from 271 RWHP at 7 psi to 325 RWHP at 8 psi... especially with the set up they're using. It's simple math... you can generall expect 10-15 RWHP per psi when turbocharging a Honda. The DRAG kit produces less then 10 RWHP per psi at 7 psi but jumps to 15 RWHP per psi at 8 pounds. Come on... there's no way. Like I said before, both the turbo and the intercooler are smaller and less efficient than the ones Speedcraft uses but it's pushing more HP...??? NOT.

hmmm....How much of a differences does 100 octane make?
They say that they make a T3/T4 Turbonetics turbo. Isn't the same size turbo that Speedcraft uses?
