I'd like 550-600 with a sick suspension, though.

Re: how much HP is enough?
I am not going to stop until I achieve over 750whp in my DSM.
My next project is to get ~ 1000whp out of a turboed SBC in my T/A on pump gas and have it daily drivable.
I know that is not very sane, but I'll try anyway

If you were able to quadruple your cute little Hatch's 100whp over night you would wreck it the next day- or just brake a bunch of axles and wheel hop your cars to pieces HAHA..
but no seriously a 400hp hatch would run low mid - low 11s right? its still gay its still a honda, a little piece of shit that is meant to get good gas mileage and you will never get your money out of it after dumping shit loads into headgaskets etc..
nissan is better, toyota is better, inline is better, RWD, is better, you think im joking? get one and you will see why a Real sports car is RWD and a sports compact little girlees car is FWD. You think its all a matter of opinion well than may the rice be with you and may you understeer into a ditch.
And did i mention hondas with b16's are unique?

are your mommy and daddy rich? did they buy your porsche for you? i would bet money on it... only a spoiled brat would spew such insults (esp. for absolutely no reason) because they never started from humble beginnings.
as for most of the rest of us on this thing we call planet earth who don't live with our heads up our asses, we started from scratch at a young age with a shitty econobox and learnt things along the way... we didn't rely on an engineer to hand us a finished product.
take your overpriced VW on steroids and drive it off a fucking cliff
