Isn't FWD kind of...um...problematic for drag racing in terms of actually putting the power down? As soon as you start accelerating, the car's weight shifts to the rear, causing a loss of traction up front, right? That, and with a gigantic turbo like that, don't you end up with massive torque steer problems, again due to the FWD?

Seems like you'd be better off to start out with an AWD or RWD car. Mitsu Eclipse GS-R, Nissan 300ZX TT, something like that. Granted, you'll pay more for the base car than a Civic, but then you'd be starting off with a performance car rather than turning an economy compact into something it was never intended to be.

Of course, if the last half of that last sentence describes exactly what's most fun for you, then more power to you and have a blast.
