it's possible, but you're not including the other costs it would take to make that much hp.
preparing the bottom end for high turbo applications is complicated and expensive. tuning the car after the turbo is in is also very costly.
all in all, it'd cost more like 10,000 to make 550 hp.

Ya, there is no way to make 550hp on a stock motor... That kit is maybe good for 300hp on a stock motor... If you want the 550hp mark then you must bulid the motor to take that much hp and that costs a lot more $$$$...

i Don't think is worth to spend so much money :hahano:.. (only of you're going to compete for the fun) .. i mean .. in drag 1/4 mile times may work .... but 500+HP?? FWD?? is really unsafe .. even if you're a experienced driver and skill gifted driver .. 500HP FWD is really really dangerous ... after 350/390HP you start to reach the limits of FWD. :doh:. i mean .. FWD is awesome :driving: .. but no wonder no one builds cars with more than 300 HP FWD .. (i think alfa from italy has a 350HP FWD)
well ,,,, that's what i think .. you can do whatever you want with your money //// since you're a enthusiast ,, i really respect! :bigok:

AWD i think is the future of the good Honda Cars .. i'm sure .... RWD will still for the sport Hondas and AWD for the luxury/sporty , FWD for the economy ones ... HP is killing FWD slowly ,,, well i think .. i mean ,,, the TL comes with 270HP .. FWD .. jezzzzz
