I dunno... everyone here talks about how the RSX type s is faster than our cars, and under the right conditions, with the right driver, it might be. All i know is that i have ended up racing 3 of these on the highway, and everytime i've been able to pull on them. Maybe they were autos? Maybe they were bad drivers? I dunno. I've never had the chance to race one from a stop... might be a different story.

maybe they just didnt want to play, but everyone says its a totally differnt car with hondata reflash, i havent seen a dyno of it so cant speak for it, but i would imagine it would do some significant changes once fuel map and timing changes..
dude RSX-s is no joke I LOVE MY CAR but they're quick little bisssshes, I'm not saying stock for stock that they would just kill us but I think they are a quicker car. I raced one one time and it took me but not by THAT much. Once they start modding though, say bye bye.

with intake, exhaust, and a hondata reflash my buddy made 197whp. also another buddy of mine has a greddy kit on his type s and made 263 at 6psi. that's freakin impressive considering that the type-s greddy turbo is smaller than the 18g that goes on a lude.
my brother has the greddy turbo and intercooler kit on his type s and it makes 260whp with just e-manage...he plans on using kpro. very, very quick car. and yes all type-s's have 6 speed which doesnt hurt either

Highway races arent always the best indicator of speed of these cars either, the Lude makes more torque than the RSX, so when you do a 3rd gear race, its probably not much of a contest. I have found that the Lude is faster than alot of cars from 60-100, but it gets owned by alot of cars(including the RSX-S) 0-60, take that for what you will.

yea, who cares, its not all about racing, sometimes i just like to feel my car when i floor it, and we have more torque via 2.2 liter vs 2.0 liter... so at least we "feel" faster hahaha which sometimes is all i care about
fvck speed, i just care about how fun it is to vtec down the road on the way to class...

If you have I/E, you should be able to beat a stock RSX-S. I've heard from multiple sources that base RSX owners have been buying Type-S badges and putting them on their cars, so don't always assume its a type S. If it's an easy win, it may just be a base model.
Day i got my prelude i beat a RSX with type s badging. Sounded modded with what i'd guess was I/H/E and i beat it pretty well. It probably wasn't a type S, but it said it so that's what i chock the win up as
FYI...a easy distinction between the base and real; The real s has the side skirts painted while the base model does not. That how I always tell, even with the badges.
