No need to get defensive. I wasn't saying you should be able to go WOT at any time without consequence. If your right foot can meter the power, that means the amount of power you have falls within the range that you can handle.
No matter how good you are, obviously there is a point at which you would have so much power that the delivery would be too vicious to control reasonably. Or, if your skill far exceeds the car's ability to make use of the power, there is a point at which any additional power would be superfluous. In either case, by definition, you would have too much power. That's all I'm saying.</TD></TR></TABLE>
We are talking about Integras here. If you keep a smooth torque curve, there won't be much "excess". This is what I posted first.

As an enthusiast, I prefer more HP.

I just realized that nobody told the OP to keep all that **** off the streets. That's probably the most important thing. Dont be stupid and go out "learning" on public roads. Take it to the track.
Wait....I DID say that. I'm so smart.

Because people are going to so listen to you over an internet forum. Its a lost cause, if someone wants to race or find a canyon and some twistes on public roads there is nothing you can do about it unless you're da POPO!

If you really want to run "twisties" fast. Forget about HP and put your money in to suspension and TIRES. You would probably be surprised what a stock gsr could do with suspension work. I'm not just talking about lowering springs either. Get something you can tune and spend time to get it right. The c1 has more power than you could probably handle in the corners. Driving fast takes time to learn, you can pick up alot driving on the roads. but you'll pick up alot more and pick it up faster going to the track and auto-x's.
