    I hope you guys can take dsm's and srt4's....high 14's low 15's stock. Shiet.........

    problem is that we lack the torque. dependant upon the driver, it is nearly equal head to head stock. But then again, we are NA from the factory with the same or nearly the same hp figures and a lot lower tq figures. add the boost and bamm, theres the bigger competition.

      yes but you add a little more boost and a frontmount on a dsm....and again...a little more competition..

              add nearly the same boost (ratio wise, damn high 11:1 compression) to the RSX and a lot more competition.

              and i trust brandon both on his and my experience. his civ went boom and my dsm went boom with high boost. but then again, his was an insane amount of boost too.

                        no, cars mostly dont like trucks haha

                        as for boost being better, idk not always lighten up a rsx a bunch, and you'll have some power, do a couple small things and she'll pull right along with dsm's or srt4's, however you want to do things

                            Nicely done.....

                            as for the RSX....dont need to lighten to keep up with them, already modded NA enough to keep up with them and dependant upon the other driver, kick their ass 😉

                                        Yes, but that doesn't give the car "more power"....it may make the car "faster" or "quicker" but it definately does not give it more power...it can make the output to the wheels higher when you reduce rotating mass, but it will not make the power output of the motor any higher...
