Learn how to make you little **** boxes work from a dig. You guys always worry about a big gay number instead of the whole deal. Now tell be how its impossible and they are so powerfull they dont have traction lol... Then in the next sentence tell me how you have no limit straps and how your car sits so low you cant get much tire on it lmao you guys are clueless keep relying on the back half .
J series isn't worth the hassle. Ever change the spark plugs on a fwd v6? B series is cheaper and you can still pull 1.7 60 ft range with a decent suspension set up...the whole point is cheap and easy speed/fun.

How quick can those C series be made? There is some guy back in Des Moines who has an NSX bragging about how many people he is going to beat in his automatic NSX when he throws on his supercharger.

Apologize for not knowing much about Honda/Acura stuff, that is why I ask

Read above. Do you ride around strapped all the time?
I loosen the straps up when I am riding around for that reason. I have a softer suspension than most people think you can get away with and the car rides better than any full size truck. It's not rocket science to get any car to ride well and hook up.

C series has a pretty high output potential...you can make them very fast.

What I have learned from Honda owners since we have been over run is this:

1. Hondas can be made to destroy any other car/liter bike on the road for pennies.
2. They cost less and hold their resale value better than anything else.
3. They hook hard on the track, street, gravel road, slip & slide, etc.
4. They ride great, even with suspension set up for dig runs. (strapped front end, heavy springs in rear, etc)
5. Interiors hold up great even when they have 250k+ miles on them, which they all can do without a single problem.
6. 500 hp on a stock motor is nothing, it should last 250k trouble free miles beating on it daily.
7. They are not gay.
8. They get great gas mileage no matter the mods.
9. Insurance costs about the same as covering a Huffy bicycle.

Does that about cover it?

I am still waiting to see the rest of your "DYNOmite" dyno graph. You know, the part that shows what you make under 6k rpm. I bet when that 70 lb ft of torque hits at 3k it gets scary!
