your car should win easily. The RSX s can run high 13s with bolt ons and hondata but if your tuned and got 18G turbo you should be doing better than high 13s yourself

the only reason they are so quick is b/cthey have 11:1 compression. i think with an 18g turbo and all supporting mods you should have no problem waxxxxxxing him!!!! you will have to get a decent launch though. he will have less problem with spinning so you'll have to baby 1st and going into 2nd.

lol im thinking that 18g turbo upgrade give a lot more power that im imagining it to lol...it must have just been b/c i havent ridden in a real car in a while lol man i hate honda's and their engines even though they have potential but son lemme tell ya lol that was the first 6 speed ive ever driven and i caught that bitch through 4 gears lol...but i was def thinking the 18g would take it i was just def surprised at the performance of that honda motor...it was def sexy power lol...still faithful to the 2g gst though and alwayz will be...

ok, gotcha. yea with an 18g with suporting mods and a tune you will absolulely wax him.. with a decent 18g and good tune you'll be pushing close to 360-370whp.

well you are running with a GS right now right? my friend has a v6 mazda 6 which stock only has 10hp more than the RSX-S and goning from his car to mine is like night and day!!! so i know exactly how you feel but going from an RSX-S to a 350whp GS-T is noooooooo comparison. on a mustang dyno my friend dyno'd at like 171whp which means the RSX-S would be putting roughly 165'ish whp down on a mustang dyno which isn't to shabby.My friend put intake and exhaust on his car and put down 178whp.Since thenhe has put ground kit, safcII, and wideband on his car and after tuned he's at 195whp.
