Honda CR-Z Mugen RZ makes 174-hp, 0 to 62 mph in 6.1 secs

Honda’s tuning arm Mugen has unveiled their new Honda CR-Z Mugen RZ. Based on the Honda CR-Z, the tuned version gets an upgraded spension, brake system, wheels, exterior parts designed considering aerodynamics and a centrifugal supercharger.
MUGEN will install the parts on their own on the CR-Z (6-speed manual) provided by Honda and start to sell 300 complete cars.
So what is exactly going on here? Basically, Mugen tuned the 1.5 liter i-VTEC engine to produce 154-hp and a maximum torque of 136 lb-ft. The 20-hp electric-motor allows for a combined output of 174-hp and a 0 to 62 mph time of 6.1 seconds.
