You dont need to spend 2K on a block. Just dont exceed the limits of the stocker. If you want to be really safe cut the power at 450. Thats more than enough for a street car... This kid I know has a 69 Chevelle w/ a 540 in it pushing over 600rwhp. My friend raced him in his 99 GT with bolt ons (exhaust, 3.73's, etc.) with me in the car and we were nose and nose up until third gear... after that was another story though. Within two seconds he literally put about 20 cars on us lol

If you really want to know for sure visit the honda forums. They all put down 500 or more.

Put a fart cannon and a monster tach on it. That's good for 350hp or more

My car put down 570ft lbs of torque at the wheels. It pulls hard but if you roll into and let the boost build its not bad to drive. Rev it and build the boost....forget it, out of control. Its fun to be rolling along at 40mph and just lay into it and destroy the rears, always good for a reaction out of someone. My car hooks well cause it has eibach drag springs plus airbag, lakewood struts and shocks and southside control arms. I say well, but it destroys my drag radials when I want.

You know there's people that have over 500hp in their Honda's right?
