They also have a dark Pewter color available that looks pretty nice. They seem to be limiting the production of the car, and changing the available colors each year.

ummmm!if i can recall a orange msp in tampa is boosting what..........20psi on stock internals whith no exaust and manual boost controller.what do u think about them apples partner!!
What pseudo said is 100% correct.
and if you are just going to get a exaust and a boost controler..have fun going "BOOM"
if you add boost you have to add more fuel, you will also have to pick up a boost guage. IMO, boost guage should be first mod.
Even if you add fuel I would not trust that engine at 14-15psi. It's not designed for any boost, let alone 15psi.

It's an NA, which is better for autocross, as it's more competitive within it's class.

I'd estimate 115 rwhp.

Car ran 16.0 @ 82 mph, with a CRAPPY 2.1 60 foot. (these cars should easily be able to get down to 1.9s, but I had owned the car 2 weeks, and wasn't as familiar as I should have been.)

My Protege trapped faster, although was over a half second slower in ET.

Handling? Oh, I like me some handling

PseudoRealityX, have you ever posted in the "other cars" section of hondavision.com? On one of my extremely rare visits to that site a while back, I read a post concerning the engines you were just mentioning, it was the first time I'd ever read anything about them on the web.
