I was just curious if you were talking about a Honda only having to have 300hp to run those times. I hope you werent because a Honda is gonna have to have more then 300hp to run high times. Its gonna need more like 500hp to run that well. And to anyone of you guys that dont think that Hondas cant run with full int. and a/c your wrong...SFP has a 99 Si that runs 10.80s, it is also his wifes daily driver. Just something to think about.
Not sure where you got your calculations there knowledge112, according to what I have figured out ( on 3 different HP calcs) but a 500hp car weighing 2100 lbs will do mid 9's (9.40s given everything goes perfect). Where are you getting your facts and figures? And I think T/S 25 was refering to A 4 CYL MOTOR.. not just a honda
