Heres my $.02
Someone says up farther in the topic, that honda is all about economy. I dont consider the S2000 an economy car?
From what i have heard/read/seen, the RSX-S is one hell of a car. I have seen dyno's of it gaining 3hp max from intake, header, exhaust, and some controllers. They are saying that it doesnt respond the best to mods, because it is an already highly tuned motor. However, i have seen dyno sheets of it gaining 6 or 7 hp from just an intake. Some one also said in here they were seeing 16+hp gains from an intake on an RXS-S, i find that hard to believe.
I have seen ls/vtecs and gs-r's rape the rsx, but i have also seen the rsx do its share of rapeage as well.

I still don't think so having witnessed fast RSXs on the track that could keep up with s2000s, e36 M3s and A4s.
The RSX is one fast bugger that responds well to mods. :thumbup: We just need a Type-R version. Ditch the leather, add more performance!
