It's been proven it takes a buttload of money to make them fast, and it's still an economy car, so it's not a proper race car, no matter how far you take it.
There are plenty of people out there who have been down the same sort of road; they modded from paycheck to paycheck trying to make (one of their) first cars fast, then later realize it was a waste of time and money.

I don't know why most people bother with Hondas.This of course doesn't apply to S200s and NSX's, which are sports cars.
