I don't disagree completely.....sure...another 300 hp will make the car faster, but if it's more than you can put to the ground safely and with tractability it's a far greater danger to you than it is an asset. I've done a few 45 degree burnouts down the street at better than 60 out of control miles per hour that I feel lucky to have walked away from. Horsepower out of control is a scary commodity and I doubt if there's a person on this forum with a heavily modded engine who hasn't experienced a similar incident at some point in his life. 600 hp in a Honda...unless you are running slicks and down a quarter mile is begging for trouble. JMHO
By the way....600 hp in the Honda? In a wrecking yard? I can almost imagine how and why it got there.......
