ok in detail here we go.....

"mugen - F1 engine builder associated with Honda. Officailly, Mugen and Honda are independent entities; Honda does not supply any financial support for Formula 1 engine, though there is considerable technical assistance. Mugen is owned and run by Hirotoshi Honda (son of Honda founder, Soichiro Honda) who has been the major shareholder in Honda since Soichiro's death. Mugen means "unlimited" in Japanese."

just to let you guys know a lot of people say mugen wrong (including me!).

it is pronounced
moo-gen

w/ the "gen" sounding like like the word begin. i think that is called a "hard g".
