uhh.. yeah, anyway i admit i didnt really read the other post, but SVTFocus was yappin bout how he was talking to oscar jackson blah blah blah... that thread he linked to mentioned nothing of the RSX-S, so how are we supposed to know he said that? besides, superchargers are a waste of moneis
but wait a second here, at the end of that post **** got really weird, you started to say that the SVTF puts down 150whp... and the RSX "only" puts down 170... wtf? assuming both crank numbers were correct at 175 and 200 respectively, both would have a 15% drivetrain loss, so why should the RSX put down more than 170whp stock?

The Acura RSX Type-S is barely faster than the SVT Focus. Honda has quality on its side, but the SVT Focus is better than most people think. The 2.0 powerplant is very responsive for what it is. Handling is in a class of its own.
"barely" is a subjective term, there are people who feel that the difference between a 15.0 and a 14.7 in the 1/4 (three tenths of a second, less time than it takes to cough), is a significant difference... i wouldn't consider anything N/A between $15k-25k to have too significant of a difference in overall acceleration
