Let me bring up a point, the RSX with minimal mods is running 2.2 and 2.3 60 ft times, So where is your torque advantage? The SVT's torque only increases wheel spin from what I've experianced. I honestly feel, as I am the only person who has owned both, the RSX is faster and from a roll is superior. Now that isn't to say a good driver in an SVT couldn't take it. Anything can happen. But alot of stock guys are putting high 14's stock. And dyno proven in numerous mags the k20a responds huge to intake mods. 19 wheel hp from AEM CAI. Guys with cai, hondata reflashed computer and exhaust are putting down 199 hp to the wheels. SO mod VS Mod, SVT needs to watch itself, even worse than racing stock for stock. Now with that said, you want a good race. Sentra S-ER Spec V with small amount of mods is sick fast... There are 3 very un-happy SVT owners in my town that know what an RSX-S can do, who knows though. I am trying to get a track meet together for the Capitol CEG to race..
Actuall your wrong....the AEM CAI puts 20HP with 4.6 LBS of torque.....Its in Sport Compact Mag.
N-e-way's....I must agree, that the RSX is a formitable foe...it will give us a run for our money stock....ANd it will get into the high 14's stock with a really good driver, not nessicarly a semi-pro driver, but some one who knows his/her car well.
My friend stock was putting an 14.9 ont eh track consistently....I could only put a 15.2.....if our cars were not so prone to wheel hope i would ahve to say it would be a dead even race, but because they are, the rsx has the advantage, Every time i raced my friends car i got 0 wheel hop.....And now he has the AEm CAI with a Magnaflow exahust system.....I must say, from experience, the RSX has the edge.
