Horsepower
Just wondering, what kind of horsepower is everyone running here. Because today I saw a what looked like a 96 hatchback with rims, racing seats, harnesses, lowering springs, exhaust, etc. It was some punk kid (looked like he was 17), and he was revving his engine at the red light like he wanted to race. I don't like speeding tickets, so I declined, but when he took off, it seemed like he was actually stock under the hood.
So that brings me to my question: Who on TCC is pushing the most horsepower? (Civics only need reply)
I understand the rims, people want a certain look, but I'm getting kinda sick of all the other upgrades, like harnesses for example, when someone has 105 hp under the hood.

Yeah, there's no doubt about that, but there's no parallel for reliability, quality, and resale value. My buddy bought a 2003 Sentra SE-R Spec V, and his A/C is ****ty. He spends 5 minutes in my car, and he's begging me to turn it down.

Harness could be for track use, but I doubt he has a cage. Rim could be for racing too, but I doubt they are light. Lowering springs could be for handling, but I doubt they are hard enough to do anything really.
I am running stock engine, I don't need power at this point. I love cornering.
