Dream on...there isn't enough money in the world to build a Ferrari-beating "normal" Honda (If you're talking about an F-1 then maybe it MIGHT be possible). Get real! Thanks for the two points!

Of course it can.Speed costs money; how fast do you want to go?!?=)Turbochargers will give you the biggest ultimate bang for your buck. Of course, you''ll need to harness all the power, so don't forget the clutch, tranny, suspension and brakes.
