And another thing, Just because people like muscle cars, I.E. v8's & rwd no matter what type/year, does that always make them rednecks?

241 NA WHP in a lighter EG or EF hatch on slicks should run in the 11s.not crazy fast,but pretty quick nonetheless.
my coupe with 269WHP ran 8.0 in the 1/8th with 2.0ish 60's.with the 1.6 60' times i've gotten before on the slicks,that'd be a mid 7,which i think is pretty impressive.

***oh,and this thread is useless without 241WHP D-series dyno graphs.***

I think I reiterated like twice that I never said anything about how fast or slow 241 hp would be. Anyone looking at it from the outside who hears "241hp" is not going to immediately fall to their knees in admiration of this holy Honda based on stictly the amount of horsepower it makes. It's impressive on the small scale, but it takes big numbers to get the average persons attention. Watch YouTube for a few minutes to get a feel for it..... 1000+ hp Evo's, 1500hp Supra's, 1000+ hp Mustang's... I was impressed by the 700hp electron blue SI that was on there years ago. I admit that even if the 700hp car put down the same times on the track as the 241hp car, I'd be more impressed with the one that made more power strictly based on numbers.

you're completely right.i didn't mean for that post to be directed at you-i just quoted you as it was a good basis for the subject of my post.it was more directed at some of the people who don't realize that it's all relative to weight.
about the only vehicle that 241WHP would sound impressive in would be a motorcycle,and even that isn't too crazy in comparison to some of the streetbikes you can find around here.

I could not imagine 240whp on a bike. I know it is very realistic, I'm just saying.
