SVTfcs: Anyway, despite our differences in opinions on cars and makes, to tell you honestly I really don't mind your focus and its quite possibly the ONLY Ford next the SVT Cobra and SVT Cobra R that I have respect for. The reason for my vulgarness was the manner in which (I don't know if it was you or another focus guy) came into our site initiaiting arguements. I hope you guys don't do that for fun in your spare time. Not to say a heated debate defending your cars is not healthy, but who needs to just slap it on the table and say lets go. We're all in it for the cars and the :driving: anyway peace...

I was simply bring up the point that the new Acura RSX Type-S seems to dyno lower HP numbers than advertised, and when I spoke to Oscar Jackson about it at a local Ford Focus meet, he agreed and said when they engineered they're SC for that car, he agreed and said that Acura fibbed on the HP numbers. I'm not saying my SVT is better, cuz I agree that FORD quality generally sucks, my honda has been super reliable no doubt, but the new RSX Type-S seems to be weak in HP ratings in my opinion, please don't flame.

anyway you started a huge argument based on a crappy assumption, trolling around and expecting to provoke a number of defensive responses and yet you tell me not to flame? like it or not, you have a username that implies you are a fanboy, and you're on a honda board in the RSX section. doesnt matter what else you drive cuz in this case it looks like you're just a troll looking to cause trouble, even if that's not true. so, whatever bud, if you can't stand the heat...

Some people are offended when people call their car 'shit'. I'm not being a hypocrite, I didn't go off the handle and start using ever swear word I know. I simply stated the fact that both of these Focus people are not very smart and backed up my statements.SVTFcs, if you're gonna come in and attempt to insult our cars, please do so with some hard evidence and lots of it. Because anything less and you're gonna be seen as a troll. KION said it...you have no business here, you're just trying to piss people off. Should I go to the Focus forums and start blabbering how that car has ELEVEN recalls and a couple of open investigations? Maybe I should, but I won't, because I have better things to do.

Whats wrong with asking this question on the RSX board? Its a valid question, I never insulted or attacked anyone, I totally respect the Acura RSX Type-S as a car for sure. I was just curious if anyone had come across the dyno HP issue or not, I mean talking with Oscar Jackson just made me more curious on the issue, as he's a proffessional in the field, if you hate superchargers or think they suck is not the question, Oscar knows more about Honda's than most people regardless, as he's been doing work on em since the 80's. I respect his opinion over most people. See ya guys!
