check car and driver and motor trend and you will see the same specs

Man, that sux, sorry to hear about you're bro's honda...when I was younger I had my bike (pedals not crotchrocket) stolen from me like 3 or 4 times and managed to track it down and steal it back all but the last time...BASTARDS..anyways, got a python alarm system on my new baby.

The sad thing is, one of my friends locked my keys in the car(it locks itself automatically as a safety thing) at the detail shop I worked at, and my boss broke into it in under 10 seconds. Not having door frames that go around the border of the window makes it so much easier to break into. But I guess if someone really wants to steal your car and knows what they're doing then there isn't much you can do to stop them.
PS. every area is overpopulated with hondas(including my garage).

Lastly, in Aces' defense, he was talking about the "400hp package" link that was in the original post. And that specific link claimed 400hp with just intake and exhaust (no boost controller). As I said before and I am sure he would agree, the 400hp package is bs without a boost controller. With the boost controller and intake and exhaust 400hp at the crank would be a correct estimate.
