Going completely N/A on one of Honda's PERFORMANCE engines is a completely diff story...

I can get alot of power out of a standard fuel sipping engine without actually doing much.. most times, a cam, I/H/E combo will seriously open it up.

Performance engines on the other hand, are a different beast... engines like the F20C, which held (holds?) the title for most horsepower output per liter, are a tough act to follow, at least without swapping parts around from other engines, messing with compression alot, etc.
