Just looked on the site and the link for RRM is www.roadracemotorsports.com not www.rrm.com

And get the turbo, you can beat the RSX!

the type-s has 200hp at the crank, not at the wheels.. and also, the torque/hp ratio sucks.. i think it only pushes on 140+ ft/lbs. of torque. HOWEVER, the thing u gotta worry about is that i-vtec the rsx-s has. its like a boost of turbo everytime vtec engages. when i drove the rsx-s, you think you're done at 5k, but then all of a sudden, you hear the vtec engage and the needle shoots up to 8k.. its some crazy shiit.. go to acura and test drive one.. well worth the trouble hehe. soon enough, this lancer of mine will be gone.. HELLOOOOOO rsx type s!!!

lol i see. I used to take my mothers 2001 Acura 3.2 TL out whenever I got bored with my 85 Jaguar. Thing was 270 hp at the crank I think. OMG that vtec egine laid down the beat downs on most of the cars I would race. Then one day, my dumb *** goes out to the the Sawgrass Express way to race and I throw it into the tiptronics doin about 110 and all I see is the LED lit up in 5th gear and the car shutters. LOL I drove the car 45 mins back home in 1st gear Thank GOD my mothers waranty was still in affect. I stripped the tranny and she got a brand new one put in for FREE

Yea Ive been wanting the Type-S RSX ever since I started racing my mothers 3.2TL. Sad thing is she traded it in for a F*KEN Toyota Highlander I told her that I was dissapointed with her. But now that I see the TSX Im not sure if I should go TSX or RSX Those TSX's dont see to bad. Plus more HP baby!!!

yea true, but you gotta consider the extra weight with the tsx, considering its a 4 door. if you want a 4 door, you might as well shell out an extra 5-7 grand and get the TL type-s hehe. im gonna start parting out my lancer by the end of the year so i can get my *** a rsx type-s.. no more of this automatic bullshiit for me..

whats the type-s rsx putting down at the wheels? and torque? I dunno why these f*ken companys post HP at the crank. To be honest to thought that the 120 HP for the lancer they had given me was at the wheels. I was so dissapointed to here like a week later that that was bs. Im going ot put this IC'ed Tubro in soon and get the TB, and see where that leaves me. Hopefully around 200 whp.

im not sure how much the type-s puts down at the wheels, but i know the AEM cai, alone, gives the rsx 20 WHEEL hp.. it was dyno'ed in import tuner.. and i wish the lancer had 120whp.. with the turbo, you'll be able to reach 200whp.. just gotta add other stuff to it like the piggyback ecu and all other things that can improve airflow through your engine.
