In what technical ways does more power ruin the car.
There have been some good responses such as:
- if done well, it doesnt ruin the car
- additional front end weight can hurt handling
- additional weight on top of the engine can hurt COG
- turbochargers are not ideal due to the lack in immediate response and the sudden onset of torque after that.

But for each of those statements there have been counter ones that say the total opposite.
You are trying to make a topic that is subjective based upon personal opinion and make it black and white. The people that do some things may feel they made the car better while the next guy in line may feel they ruined it. The guy that slams a car to a 1/2 inch clearance doesn't think he ruined anything. The same applies to one that builds a 500 HP beast. If you just cherry pick the responses you want to hear and ignore everything else as "off topic" you may miss some very good information. All I am saying is you need to look at the whole picture not just a finely focused segment.
