um...you are wrong...where are you getting your info? the dc2 runs right at 14.8 also

and can someone else answer my question?

 

the dc5 k series responds to mods better
since the b18c is already tweaked from the factory and is already making more than 100hp per liter

 

I have two 01 R's, my R ran a 14.5 three times in a row with no mods and my wife's ran 14.9 best. When I had the 200hp '02 type S it was definitely not faster than either of the R's. I ran a 16 second 1/4 (bad driving) and the best I've seen at the track with mods was a 14.1 (all motor). The R is lighter than the S and I believe in combination with an LSD it has a clear advantage. As for the 210hp, I think it is still a lot to ask for 10hp to make close to a half second difference in the 1/4. I could be wrong. What are the new S's running or projected to run?

 

my buddy ran a 15.15 at CMI here in norcal
my R when i first got her bone stock ran 14.72 at same track
with my modifications now i ran 14.32 with gay khumos 712s about month 1/2 ago

 

I got my info from motor trend
