The SE-R now, power is capped at where ever you want to stop at. I spent prolly $6000 to go from 140hp to 330whp. That is unbelievable! I handle vettes, mustangs, civics, integras, camaros and so much more.
The 240sx though, now that is a beast. Stock SR20 block can handle 450hp, no problem. Car costs 3-6k and then a turbo motor swap for a stock SR20DET with tranny, harness, ecu and usually driveshaft is 2200-3000k and you have a 225hp RWD beast. Turbo kits are prevelant and so are body kits and JDM parts.

I will have to call BS on a stock SR20 handling 450 HP. I guy I know cranked up the boost on his (can't remember what PSI) and blew a rod through the block. IT was NOWHERE near 450 HP.
