hey guys, i've got a buddy that i work with who has an '03 RSX Type-S, and i just wanted to see what you guys thought would be the outcome. my car is bone stock, he has a CAI and cat-back.

we plan on doing a dig and 40 roll. any ideas???

you should win. i raced one with full boltons and a rebuilt engine from a 40 roll with a passenger in my car, the rsx had no passenger, and he started edging me out as i shifted into 3rd gear. i think you should be fine, they really need alot of mods to be fast

You should be able to take him, but they are fairly quick up top so it may be closer than you think

....eh...

I think the LT1 is going to pull a few lengths at least.

I remember Car and driver testing all the hot rod econoboxes of the early 2000s. SS/SC, SRT-4, WRX and the acura was by far the slowest running a 15 second 1/4. Most of the others were very low 14s.

Yeah you should be fine unless he was turbocharged. I've seen some nasty boosted ones, but otherwise they're pretty much turds.

LT1 should have this one with no problems..

That RSX better get some lube, cause that LT1 is going to bend it over.

A buddy of mine's brother in law has a supercharged RSX-s, it really isn't all that quick for how much cash he dumped into that thing

I had an 08 SI Sedan for awhile. It felt sort of quick sometimes, but it really wasn't. The SI like I had are a hair quicker than the RSX-S imo. I ran an LT1 from a dig in it once and got hammered. Bad thing is, the guy wasn't exactly driving his LT1 all out, but I was.
