Obviusly an engine that is extensively built is NOT going to be streetable, but it still is the worlds fastest D15 on the planet, and no one can dispute that. Not 400 hp? It was never actually published, but if Steph's old AEM drag Civic that he used to use (the FWD H22 version) could only pull 8's on 671 turbocharged HP, then Bisi's 10.23 second N/A D15 has to be pushing some insanely high numbers, otherwise he couldn't be only 2 seconds off a turbo'ed H22. if you can find his actual HP rating on the motor before he retired it, then post it up and prove me wrong.
Bisi's F22 puts out 376hp and 256 lbs-ft, his 1.5 D series, which is what we are talking about put out around 250hp, once John at RS machines emails me the card, I'll have more exact numbers on the D for you.

I'm not trying to be a dick or anything, but we need to keep this realistic, there's a lot of up and comers that are reading this stuff, and taking it to heart, lets keep it as accurate as possible.
