What you don't seem to understand is, I have been in a 400 whp civic that was gutted and it still wasn't fast enough for me.

ok, then this car is not for you...period...we have explained it to you over and over, yet you still persist with the complaining that, 400Hp is not enough.

well this car is not for you then, as it would cost gobs of money to accomplish tha in this car...maybe you should look else where.

Smokeshow.. I'm trying to help you out.. Stazi was not badgering you when he said what he said.. 400WHP is pretty damn good for what we're working with. Getting the car off the line is your biggest obstacle.. Try getting your drivetrain beefed up before throwing a ton of HP to it.. You're going to need an LSD, stage 3 or better axles, race slicks, stiff suspension, replace stab-o-shock with a solid bar, polyurethane motor mount inserts, and look out for some other products that are supposedly "in the works" for our cars to help with traction.. By Stazi stating that this car is a monster from a roll, he says this because most people are using these cars as road warriors, and love the pull the get in the top end, so we've come to realize that we sacrifice our launching for this.

I know you are probably being sarcastic or just being a pita. But I will post some anyway.

Mark,

I realize I probably am over reacting on a lot of these statements. And I should take to heart more of what everyone is saying and not how they are saying it. Just sometimes, it does not probably sound the same as they mean it. Thus the problem with internet, you can never really tell someones intent unless previously stated. Thanks for you time and comments. And I do realize that basically everything has to be changed because nothing was meant to handle that type of abuse. Heck, I know that in stock form. I break something all the time on these cars.

For what it is worth, thanks.
And yes, I know where you stand. But I would like to think that you are somewhat like me. And do not need the to know where you stand with everyone else. Because it does not matter where you stand, or if everyone likes us. Different is almost never liked. So I do not expect to have a warm welcome. Just wasn't expecting some of this.
