Please don't start another post like this here. You know better then to listen to a bunch of idiots. Evo was considered in magazines with Lambo, Twin Turbo Vipers...etc. and you believe that ACURA and Honada will give you problems. Please get real. Tell those people with Hondas and Acura to try to beat a Grandmother in a Buick, because their cars will never be even close to the same league as EVO.

No I am not coming at you. Sorry if it seems that way. I just hate it when people think they can hang with us. They find 2 or 3 bad drivers out there and they think all evo's are the same. I pulled 3 cars away from my buddy in his stage 3 SRT-4 without any problems, and my Evo is stock. I am just happy I have a EVO that all.

you need alota crap put into a type S to make it hang with an evo, but let alone beat one? UHHH i dont think so. and you ask how do i know this? i owned an 02 acura rsx base, but i knew alota about the type S. the motor is very good in the type S however, its not good enough to beat a beast such as the evolution. there is no comparison.

I've owned both and an EVO is hands down the better car. Rsx's are very nice though. Mine with just a cold air intake ran 14.4, not too bad. But you can't really compare the two. AWD and an easy 300hp is hard to beat. If you shop around you can also buy an EVO for only a few thousand more than the RSX-S.

True..but how much is an NSX? I wouldn't consider it a typical Honda. It is more of an exotic car, in the same league as an Evo. I think he was talking about like Integras and Civics and the like.

So you in a stock Evo easily walked a stage 3 SRT-4? What type of run was it?

Same question, I race a srt 4 with just the ecu and injectors and open filter. At 110mph he would go right by me. this was with my car stock. On a xcross maybe, but from roll to 120mph the srt will get ya. Not sure how a stock srt4 will do. From a stop then a evo will rule the srt4. Also i have a friend with a stage 3 srt4, his making over 300hp i think it was like 330, he distroyed me from a roll. Never tried from the dig, but i dont think i would have won.

That is complete and utter bull****. You can beat a stock SRT-4 (not as easily as you claim, they have 230whp and 250wtq STOCK) but never, and I mean never, will you beat a stage 3 or turbo upgraded SRT-4 in a stock Evo.

I dont think the guy in the SRT4 could drive. Those SRT4 come from factory underrated. Couple of mods and it will rape a stock evo from a roll.
