1987 US CRX Si specs:
91 bhp@5500rpm
1953 lb
0-60: 8.5 sec
1/4 mile: 16.7
top speed: 115 mph
According to the same site, a CRX with an aftermarket supercharger and intercooler (and one would assume beefed up tires, suspension, drivetrain to handle the extra torque) can do a 5.7 0-60 and a 14.8 1/4 mile. And even after all that money, it still looks like a shitty old Honda. Now:
Corvette LS1 | Z06:
350@5600 | 385@6000
3214 lbs | 3115 lbs
0-60: 4.6 sec | 4.0 sec
1/4 mile: 13.22 | 12.6
top speed: 175mph | 171mph
Unless by "well-tweaked" you mean "full-blown tube-chassis racecar running high boost and nitrous with few or no original parts," you're talking out your ass.
