There are indeed some truly FAST Civics out there. Unfortunately, most of what we see are the boy racer versions with no more than a 6" exhaust tip and a 3' tall rear wing. I have several friends/coworkers here at Honda R&D in Ohio who are into the high HP Civics, and believe me, they make the numbers. At a recent dyno day, one made 496 hp at the wheels, with 26lbs. of boost. This, in a 2000# car! It's truly amazing the power some of those 4 cyl's. can produce. And yes, it costs lots of $$$ to make it!

It's a great era to be a car enthusiast!
