I've seen an EP Civic with 500-600 HP and honestly it just gets silly. I don't really see the point of taking a front wheel drive car past 400 wph anyway. You lose drag races anyway and there is only so much HP you need for a track.

+1

LOL. Even with cams with tons of lift/duration (that idle like shit), extremely high compression, lightweight/balanced internals, individual throttle bodies, open exhaust runners coming straight off the head/no cats/mufflers/collector ect, the ultimate ported head/large valves, and a very aggressive tune on race gas, a sub 2.0L is going to have a tough time pulling ~280+whp in N/A trim.
