Caliber SRT-4 VS Acura RSX Type S with 75 shot of nitrous

[acurazor]

Ep3 with factory a3 in it? Bullshit, unless the set was toying with you.

[shortstop12088]

kind of sad for the type s. My ep3 with i/h/e kpro untuned pulled a caliber srt 4 from 40-105, got owned on top end.

[itsrobbie1]

what happens when you run out of nitrous? caliber srt4 ftw

[justinjdm123]

wow...type-S with 75 shot cannot beat a power ranger.....must be the driver!!

[Adubz7777777]

Not bad!!!!!! there is a turbocharged RSX here in my town. hes a friend of mine. we havent got to race yet since i got my CSRT4. ill post a vid when we finally do so u can see how bad i get beat(atleast thats what im expecting)

[vitaliykim]

75 dry?

[porscheowner]

My friend told me it was a 75 wet. i'm not sure though

[vitaliykim]

lol, that RSX would have me thinking all night. Both are nice cars.

[h1coupe]

@vitaliykim acura rsx-s runs a returnless fuel system so a dry kit is not adviced unless you can control the extra fuel with a management like k-pro.

so it´s probably running a wet kit, as it says it´s stock.

[gumper1986]

"Let me get a turbo and we'll rematch."

This seems to be the most famous excuse, right behind 'I missed a shift'.

[Gti377]

the caliber srt-4 is the shit! im glad dodge finally came out with the stage 1 kit. now all we need is stage 2 and 3! my nsrt-4 was neck and neck with a 06 rsx with same mods and i only had intake. must say that was a good run for me also.

[MaddDogg81]

the stock block of what car?

[porscheowner]

RSX, they have a k20 in there wright? dont know much about acura or honda motors. how much power can they hold with stock internals?

[acurazor]

Stock blocks have been known to hold 500hp, as long as the tune is good alot is possible with the stock block. Kinda pointless though, why spend all that money getting the HP and not build up the block.

[porscheowner]

I agree, if you gonna do it then do it wright. good for a stock block though

[MaddDogg81]

@porscheowner yes they have the K20. There is a video on here os one that is 500whp all stock

[acurazor]

ahhh man you found out. Obviously you would smoke me without the nitrous. LOL. Who told you?

[porscheowner]

haha i got my ways of finding info, word gets around in a small town. I knew you had something else done after we did our first run, cuz theres no way you would keep up if all you had was an intake. I figured you had a tune or NO2 but i didnt hear you purge(sneaky). I didnt wana say anything unless i knew for sure. your car did real good though.

[crazylegs8742]

OHH NOW IT COMES OUT A 75 SHOT OF NITROUS

[shawnmgarcia]

Nice vid, great race!

[MaddDogg81]

in my RSX I get 254wph on only aobut 6.5-7psi. I'd get 300whp on aobut 9psi

[porscheowner]

How much horse power/torque can a stock block hold before you have to do internal work?

[cdmwwf]

your makin are car look bad ive beatin way more faster cars than that .. u sure that stage one is working right i seen another vid with the same issue a stage 1 csrt4 lost to a stock csrt4 idk

[porscheowner]

The car seams to be working fine, its pulling strong. I know the guy thats having problems with his stage 1 and imo, its cuz he's been experimenting with EBC'S and his WGA(our car dosent like it when we mess with the boost lol). Honestly how hard is it to run from a roll? check out my other vids and u will see my 0-60 and 1/4 mile times there not great but there deacent and i'm getting faster.

[hondaking42]

csrt4 are slow anyway no offense but my type s wit only i/h/e and good driving beat most of the old srt4's

[porscheowner]

I know the RSX is running more then a short ram thats why i posted "only known mods". my guess is he has Nitrous cuz there no way a rsx with a short ram will keep up like he did.

[acurazor]

Keep up? My first run was good, when I missed 3rd the second run, my clutch started slipping, which is why I fell behind the 3rd run. I could smell it bad. Let me get a turbo and we'll rematch.

[porscheowner]

Bad choice of words on my part. i ment you wouldnt be able to pull on me like you did lol. yeah we need a rematch when you get your turbo, but i got some plans for the car and if all goes well i should be hitting high 11 1/4's on drag radials by mid next year i hope.

[acurazor]

Damn! that's fast! Would be awesome if you did that. Do you have a tune on your car? Most turboed cars come from factory pretty watered down, alot can be gained from ECU work. I don't know anything about domestics, it's all foriegn to me haha.

[porscheowner]

Yeah i have a tune and i should be pushing a little over 300hp and 300trq to the wheels. i'm gonna head over to Goodspeed in phoenix and have them dyno my car so i can find out for sure what my power numbers are.

[acurazor]

so what does your car run at the track? Just trying to guage how quick I was that night. Just curious. So what are your future plans? Gonna upgrade that snail? Any block or head work?

[porscheowner]

Wright now i'm running mid 13's my best time so far is a 13.6@108 but that was before i had my motor mounts which i just installed last weekend. My times are getting faster but ive done so much to the car in the last month that it changed the way the car handled and i'm getting used to it again. my guess is your running high 13's with your n02 kit.

[acurazor]

sounds about right, kinda what I was expecting. Can't wait for turbo though.

[cdmwwf]

no dont do it from a dig your driving hobbible i dont think a 200 hp car would even come that close to better a 330 hp car sorry either u cant drive or that rsx is pushin about 280 +

[porscheowner]

No doubt that the RSX is quick. the same night i ran a Z28 LS1 Camaro with light bolt ons and i pulled on him from a 20mph roll. Is my driving the best,up to par,top notch? I dont think so, but i guarantee you that i'm not the worst driver in the world lol.

As far as racing from a dig goes, i still wana try it, if i get beat then thats gives me something to work towards.

[MaddDogg81]

RSX FTW

[porscheowner]

No joke. i'm running 15lbs of boost and should be over 300 at the wheels and he's wright there next to me lol.

[SrtDrew]

LOL you don't wanna Race from a Dig bro...Anyways i must say i did much better in My 05 Srt-4 vs Acura RSX type-S with an Injen Short Ram ,I've got Stage one and the K&N Drop in Also, And thats it. I pulled like 3 on him in about second and thats about where it stayed i guess but still, maybe it looks diff. tho cause it's at night. Don't Know Good Run's tho both of ya..(Neon's Srt-4 were Lighter too, might have a tad to do with it.)

[cdmwwf]

the neons an the caliber are almost the same weight maybe a diff of a couple hundred

[acurazor]

NICE! Great vid man. Cant wait to go out there agian.

[porscheowner]

Thanks bro, yeah we gotta try it from a dig next time.
