SCC said that the dyno numbers would most likely show up on the production model.

And to whoever said they weren't impressed with Neons at the autocross – Neons are one of the best autocross and road race cars! If you go to an SCCA road race, there are a ton of Neons. The ACR Neons come from the factory with Konis and they handle awesome. While I'm not about to rush out and buy one, they're going to be fast. I think Honda is going to be left in the dust unless they bring over the Type R.

The turbo-four cylinder market is really heating up. MAZDASPEED Protege, Neon SRT-4, WRX, VW Golf 1.8T, and apparently, (according to www.autoweek.com), Ford is putting a turbo on the Focus. Honda has never offered a turbo from the factory (they haven't had to), so I think it's time the Type R Civic came over.
