A guy I work with has an '03 RSX with the following mods: cold air intake, coilovers, very nice tires. That's it. We've messed around a couple of times on the way home, but this morning we met up on the way in and nobody on the road.
The race started from a slow rolling start as we turned onto the 2 lane road we work on, me in the lead and he was the first to hit it. I pulled a little in first gear even though I broke loose a little, good shift into second, but then he started pulling on me and by the time I was into third he was pulling up alongside me. My hand slipped off the shifter pulling into 4th, but by then it was over because a car came around the corner about a 1/4 mile up and he had to drop back. Fact is, I think we would've had me unless things started going better for me in 4th gear and over 80 mph. :3d_frown: RSX's don't put down the most power, but they must be light.
So here's where I stand these days: Dynoed at 213 whp last week at 11 psi and pig rich, stock CT26 & IC, 3" turbo elbow, dp, and high flow cat, 2.5" flowmaster muffler, APEXi Power Intake, MBC, worn out shitty tires I bought used a year ago. This will be done again with better results after I buy my SAFC!!!!
