P.S. Anyone else think it was weird that he has a Hondata on only I/H/E?
not really. lots of rsx owners get the hondata flash as a first mod.

i just ran my buddy and it was really close, he had me off the line but i bounced it off the rev limiter from 2nd gear.. LOL and he doesnt want to run again (i think b/c he knows this time i will beat him :naughty: )

all in all he beat me by a fender.

hes got the advantage of torque. does n e body know how much heavier a DC5 is than a GSR DC2?

GJ bud, hurry up and get some exhaust so you wont have the problem of losing to a base modeled RSX.

BTW, i just noticed we have the exact same car, 1999 SSBP GSR, that color is the hotness. no?

I guess in a nutshell its a company that specializes in modifiying/tuning/manufacturing ECU's for modified Hondas and Acuras. Theres more to it but thats pretty much it.

he would pull on you with those mods, rsx's take to breathing mods extremely well, I read somewhere that just an intake gives them around 15 horses.
