They make the highest HP per Liter cars in the world, they don't need to turbo them. It's probably just a inside rule they have.

Because they dont need to. They make great cars without the help of turbo.

PROBABLY because performance is a very MINIMAL thought in the mind of honda... they are economy cars.. granted they are peppier than MOST economy cars.. but all in all they are JUST economy cars..
