no way si shoulda beat the rsx especially by that much

[jaaxjassmine]

[fasthonda]

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

I'M THE ONE WHO DOESN'T KNOW ANYTHING HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!­!!!!

There are so many things your wrong about.

Okay I guess I'll correct you... The K20 can make like 20whp with intake/header/exhaust. The RSX Type-S and 06+ Civic Si both have virtually the same engine with minor differences, and both have i-VTEC, rofl! And there is nothing economical about the VTEC crossover on the Civic Si. Goodness gracious, who's the noob now?

[fasthonda]

Nah, actually you're wrong again, sorry to keep pwning you man.

The R18A1 out of the regular Civic is a 3-stage VTEC made for economy, and it just works on the intake valves. The K20Z3 in the Civic Si is a 2-stage where VTEC works on both the intake an exhaust valves and it's sole purpose is for performance, including the short gear ratio tranny.

And yes, I/H/E makes a very big difference on the K20 engines, when compared to B, D, and H series engines. Everyone knows this, but you.

fg2 ftw bitches!!!!!

[masterbaeten88]

gotta love that k20z6 with the stock LSD tranny on the civic lol compared to the open diff on the rsx

[sic3kgt]

@doomsdaygsr but you can get wavetrac lsd for 700 dollars. Or quaife lsd for 800. lol

[doomsdaygsr]

you could tell the guy that yells yyyyeeeeeeeessssssss owns a civic si , , for all the type s owners , have fun saving 4000 dollars for a lsd tranny, thats why he won , better launch and steering all day son.

[doomsdaygsr]

i hate how people say its a drivers race, that just shows you dont know shit about hondas, no way a rsx should win, civic si has a lsd tranny , comes from dc5 r , with six gear from a tsx for better crusin , fuck the peg leg tranny on the rsx, you just get ripped off for a type s , you can keep the leather seat i rather have a better transmission any day, plus the si seats are like dc2 type r seats but way better. i like them both just hate the tranny on the type s , what a rip ... fg2 asm ftw

[angrut]

You know what I think... Stock vs stock rsx will win... Fully built civic si will win....

[sckmykickz101]

any stock 2005 RSX Type S s faster den any stock si so yea pretty much da driver sckz

[angrut]

"whoo hoo, what happened? Si won"

[vinhxonxaccord]

its a driver race...

@fasthonda

i/h/e can make about 20 whp... But.... so can a tune with i/h/e

I went from 185 whp to 205 whp with i/h/e and then with tuning i'm up to 230 now...

civic si. Just a small addition showing that a tune is every bit as important as the mods you put on the car.
