STI's have been around for a few years now, 10? When they first came out I knew a couple of fairly well off dudes that were getting over 500hp out them with little more than bolt-ons.

Those early cars are now falling into the hands of the civic crowd. Off the showroom floor they are twice the price though so it takes a while for it to trickle to douche level.
