City Turbo I from 81-83, City Turbo II -1987 Both motors were based on a 1237cc CVCC Honda engine. The compression ratio was 7.5:1 with boost up to 12psi. The Turbo II had a compression ratio of 7.6:1 now with an inter cooler.<\/p>\n

It’s ironic that the car they chose to release as a special edition turbo was the least sportscar like vehicle in the Honda range. The Honda City Turbo was the brainchild of Hirotoshi Honda. Hirotoshi is the son of Honda’s Founder. Hirotoshi\u2019s company Mugen had already proven its worth making performance parts for motorcycles and some cars but was unheard of outside of racing circles.
