with the rsx, i wasn't talking about the type-s, which has 142 lbft, though i'm not sure if the base rsx has vtec or i-vtec. and my car doesn't have variable valve lift/timing. in reality the mazda 2.0l has a very respectable amount of torque, i guess i just wanted to argue.
-
You have to consider too, that RSX has V-Tec. Which has a tremendous effect on power. I'm also guessing that your 1.8 has some type of varible valve timing. All things considered, they are good performers for what they are.

135 lb/ft is not a lot of tourque at all. it's basically average. compare that to a rsx 2.0l that has 141 lbft, or my 1.8l that has 125 lbft. 2800 lbs is a lot to be getting pushed by 130 hp.
-
True, they look good, and are fairly heavy. But what you fail to realize is that that motor is 130hp, and 135ft/lbs of torque. That is an EXTREMELY torquey factory motor. Also, 2800lbs isn't really that heavy, realistically for a wagon, that's pretty light.

these protege5s are all looks, unless you boost this 2.0l 130hp I4, it's not going to have enough push to get this 2800lb car going.
that does sound pretty sick.... ive got an 02 p5 with k&n intake and mazdaspeed exhaust...
but what effect do the aftermarket headers have?

pretty much no effect. i put those on for him and, personally, wasn't impressed. but whatever-- its his money. i wouldn't waste mine though.

Wow, that car sounds damn good, like a fucking F1. What CAI, and exhaust are you running?

hahaha. not even close to F1. more like barber dodge or some other 4 banger. it's my buddy's car, so i'm not sure what exhaust he put on it. but i custom built the CAI for him. nothing special
