Are you constantly at the drag stip from the time you go to work/school till you get home? i dont think so. 300whp can propell a stipped and pure drag civic down the 1/4 in less then 9.9 secs, you dont need that for everyday, so now, if you feel like knocking on my ideas, think about what you are trying to do or what everyone else is trying to do.
300 wheel out of a b18c and boost = 9 seconds?
The only reason people put in b's and boost is because it will give a lot more power for half the cost of a "fast" n/a d. Just because you may have "300whp" doesn't mean you have to use it every day. But it's there when you do need it.
