Will Honda ever make a boosted sports car?
We are talking about Specific HP/liter. I am saying that Honda has done it(getting the most HP per liter on N/As).

My only argument about the whole HP/liter is that it's so much easier to do with a small displacement/high compression engine than a bigger one. I'm a honda fan. Owned an RSX Type-S for a few years and loved it.
^^ I think we are going in the same direction. I mentioned in page number 2 that Honda has done it(120hp/liter ) years ago on a N/A. I also mentioned that more exotic cars even years later haven't reach that level (Vipers,Porsches,BMW Ferraris, Lambos).
In page #2 I argued with member tarmacisback69. He said:
"hondas dont make outstanding power unless boosted or built."
If 120hp/l is not plenty of power for a N/A then we need no more talking. The most powerfull production car in the world makes 1000hp but it takes 8.0liters and 4 turbos to achieve it. You take a Honda s2000 engine and increase it to 8.0 l and by theory should make 960hp and that is without turbos. Obviously it might not happen that way but the technology is there(120hp/l N/A)

Yea 120 per liter ok, honda has never gone past 240 horsepower in any line of their performance cars. Sorry its not going to keep up.
Thats why i stated. unless built or boosted. Other wise its gotta be dumped into another altered chassis to even be compared to other cars such as a evo, sti, vette. The power isnt even worth bragging about.
