I don't own one (yet ) but just using the motor it's hard to get more than an additional 25hp out of it or so. However, turbochardged, these motors are capable of over 400hp.

just check out powerhaus.com, click *HOT* and check it out for yourself.

Because Hondas are economy-tuned from the factory leaving a lot more potential. Plus the aftermarket for a Civic is so much more than an S2 that the prices aren't even comparable.
