Why are we making fun of Honda's? Last I checked (2 nights ago) My best friend's new SI dominates the tC- my car

their 200 hp and 139lb aren't great off the line but then it hits about 5k and there he goes. We probably shouldn't talk crap about a guy with .4 liters less than with a better breathing engine makine 40 more horses. (The lack of torque is almost unnoticeable once first gear gets to 5k. Every shift puts it right back in the high hp range). Believe me I race him all the time hoping for different results
Also, If I add I/H/E will that void warranty? I'm a total noob to new cars and warranties. Thanks!
