I had one, you will eat it, there quicker than rsx- type S b.c mine beat one (but by a fender). There was a local honda forum member whos, h22 made 450+ but that is with boost. He is not making 350 probably not even 250, do not sweat it

The OP also doesn't mention if the Honda has a reputation as a V8 killer. A 340 horse N/A front wheel drive Honda would have a huge rep in the local street scene and would be putting away cars every night. If nobody local has heard of this kid or the badass honda chances are it's BS and doesn't exist.
So what was the outcome of the race?

If it's a honda claiming 340hp. I'd more then likely expect to see it in a tube frame chassis or like you said a caged, gutted, all out drag car. Not some street car is what I was basically getting at. I'm not at all doubting a Honda motor has the potential. I know they do, and I know they have made these numbers. But, from someone driving a street driven H22 prelude? Ha.
You ******* serious? I have NEVER heard anyone say I made three hundred and forty six point four Rwhp. Absolutely retarded... Usually people round up or down a few rwhp... 300-305-310-315-320 etc..

no jack ***, they'd say 377. at least thats how it is here in texas, california, maryland, hawaii, and the middle east. maybe in the hills of TN you have to keep numbers down to two significant digits or people get confused, but not most everywhere else, and thats what dudes is saying. , the guy apparently claimed to hit 340 on the dot. not 339, not 338, 340.000 on the dot, and he and i are both saying thats BS, no way he hit that number on the dot. we are saying he, like you just said you do, rounded the number. and yes, everywhere else, you'd be considered a lieing sack of ****. i mean, dont they teach rounding in like the second grade? even they know 377 would round to 380, not 370.

In the car world..... 377Rw actually rounds to 350Rw, get with the program.
Just like I dono't have a 370, I'm going to round down to a stock bottom end lq9.
Yea, NO WAY could someone hit 340 on the dot... That is unicorn level ****. That *** hole. 341..... Sure... 340, what a dip ****. He gave himself away.

If I spin 4 wheels any combination is statistically just as likely as the next. Be it 444.4, 123.4, or 340.0
It is a mental illusion to think patterned, whole, or "special" (ie 777 or 666) number is less likely than a more "random" looking number.

technically you could have a 600hp peak and tell ppl you only dynoed 421...granted it was at 4700rpm, it's still not lying.
racing dyno sheets is lame anyway. who gives a ****. if you want to talk **** about someone else's car, you best be doing your homework before the **** talking starts. most ppl will embellish their dyno results anyway. i am the opposite. i ******* loved having a 317whp car that went 12.0 with a 3700lb raceweight.

No, they were supposed to meet a 3:40pm, but everyone assumed he was rounding and showed up at 3:45 
. By the time everyone rounded off, it was all too late. Race turned out dead in the water because of this.
