well, my best friend bought RSX-S (preveusly he drove Civic SiR b16A). So now we got in a talk who would win - my Celica with Turbo kit or RSX-S?? What do you think guys... Im planing to run about 160-180 hp with my Celi. His RSX MAY BE still stock, maybe some basic mods (CAI, Exhaust and etc)...

So, i was just thinking, maybe i should ask you turbo guys who raced the Trex, maybe you will give some sugestions...

Thanks..


P.S. Race will be on 1/4 mile road.

There's no need to be mean. He was just kind of asking if they ran around high 15s or low 16s. wink.gif

I'll apologize for that. I get kinda grumpy when people just go off on something because it wears an "H" badge... at least in a way. Anyways... yeah... for those who care and wanna know... we at Thao's Smog Automotive have a K20A2 (RSX-S motor) powered 03 Civic SI that will easily lay down a low 14 second pass on street radials.

Story: We did a Jackson Racing Supercharger Install on an 04 Civic SI yesterday (saturday 14th) and even at 6 psi of boost, the car we did the install on was pulled 4 cars by my cousin's 03 K20A2 Civic SI (with CAI, Header, exhaust, and Hondata). I have pics of the install... and it's proof that even a bigger torque band will need many other things to win in a race... and that horsepower definately plays a role in drag racing... I will agree, that a well driven and built LS1 camaro will beat an RSX-S just with shear overwhelming power and torque... but that's not saying there's no way an RSX-S can beat a Camaro. Have you even seen a fully built LSVTEC Civic hatch with stage 2 Toda valvetrain run down a built 13 second Supercharged 5.0 Mustang? I have... and seeing is worth more than imagining...
