I think the only way to find out is to find someone have the balls to push the limit.

But why do you need that much power? I think if we can get a reliable 500bhp running at around 16psi that should be more than enough for any kind of use(apart from drag of coz)

Yeah, but how long did it run for?

A fair few people on this board (uk forum) have been boosted in the 4 hundred HP region and have had success and reliability. IMO when you start getting above this figure it's only a matter of time.

Its all well and good when you read about the yanks 'putting down 600whp' but when you watch the forum closely it unbelievable how many engines give way.

What's your end goal?

Agree with Dixon.

It's easy to get carried away with figures, but an s2000 with those sorts of figures will awesome and so much fun, the car doesnt weight much at all for those sort of figures.

Yank dyno's must be measured in genetically modified big horses as there dyno's always read high for some reason

Good man

Your car sounds the part anyway.

If mine was 500whp it would be broken in a matter or hours. I break mine at 240hp.

I'll get a charger one of these days though.

I will admit the more you do to this car the easier you drive it ie no dumping the clutch with r888s on the back cheers mate Lee.

Seems very common this Vin number ecu problem. What did you guys ask for when you went to the dealer because my local pretends they can't do anything?

Great thread this though can't wait to start bolting my mods on.

Just went in a had a go to the manager there and explained to him what happened and ask why the ecu doesn't have a Vin, he apologised and got the car inside the workshop in no time and got the computer out and put the vin back into the ecu within 5 mins. I was still pissed as it was raining outside so he apologised again and said I didnt have to pay for anything.

All Honda main dealer should have this system to plug into the odb and code the ecu, so if they said they can't do anything is either they are really incompetent or just pure can't be bother. As they know this is manufacture fault and they cant really charge you anything to have this vin code back in.
