Spec V for certain. If you had H/E to go with your CAI, still Spec V.

spec v's have 6spds and put down stock about 165 torque to the wheels.. with an avg driver youll get mid 15s stock, and a good driver witha good 60ft u will get low 15s, not to shabby for a 4banger....

if he sucks at driving, you have a chance. The only one I've ever had a problem beating, was Ryan's friend with the Spec V (he beat me 2/3 times). He knew how to launch it good. All the other ones I've ever raced I took by more than a car (they were prob auto, and shitty drivers). Oh, and I had way more than just a CAI.

spec v's are all low end, top end they start to die... there good up till about 90 mph.. my bro has a spec v and if he races a rsx type s intake vs intake its a drivers race, but if the rsx can drive than it will take a spec v only in the top end.. third gear pulls like a mofo on the type s's.. but from 15 mph to about 60 all spec v

my friend has a hondata reflash in his rsy type S. redlines at 8700.

(Is it called a hondatat reflash, or just a reflash?)
