Very true. I am still curious what can be done NA with this frs for it to become a track monster. Put it on a fat kid diet and run some ITB's and serious cams, springs, retainers, valves, PnP. I think on fat kid diet and a driver in the 175lb area this car should weigh in sub 2.4k lbs. I got money on these cars clipping off 1/4 mile times NA, faster than any Z on here in no more than a year.

Hardest part for Hondas with the K is once going boost and doing multiple lap sessions you are really trying to fight heat soak. It can take a car down. Boosting one is great for a strip or time attack, but NA for a K taking on lapping sessions is where it is at and it in a car sub 2k lbs 300whp is dirty, you are running in supercar territory lap time wise.

Over half the battle in building a fast track car is the weight.
