And, I might add - that motor is pretty well maxed out.

I know a few years ago a few autocrossers were trying to work on the motor 
to run in SCCA Street Prepared class and they had very little luck getting 
more power using class-legal mods.

I didn't follow the thread after about two years ago, but we don't see too 
many Honda powered mod cars at the national level.

Kool motor, but Honda took the fun out of building for "some" of us.
