Lol. Nice kill man. RSX-s are quick, but no match for a modded TL 6 speed.

Unless heavily modded themselves...

Just a random that didn't know how to race and drive. I think he had just a CAI or SRI from the sound of the engine in the 1st race, he was in 4th gear and you can hear the VTEC "kick" in...2nd race he put it in 3rd gear instead and hit the limiter where I pulled hard on him...not a good driver at all!

I use to own an 04 RSX-S couple years ago and those K20's are quick on 1st gear roll...good cars!

05 RSX-S with K-Pro/I/E/DCRH is a 13 second car...with a good driver...not bad for a 4 cylinder N/A!

Yessir, the RSX-s with bolt ons/Hondata is a quick little bugger. Some have seen mid 13s with those mods, about where we should be with bolt ons. I've yet to see someone run @ the track with all the bolt ons plus a tune tho. Hopefully soon that will be me

If not, I'm sure someone else will do it

An Accord 6MT with I/3" E/PC Deletes and 300lbs of weight reduction ran 13.6 @104 with 60' ranging in the 2.25 - 2.30 range! He dyno'd 245whp/215wtq I believe. With a better 60' that's good for low 13s...We can do it!

I lost to my friends rsx-s 6 speed from a 40 roll (fully bolted, light weight rims and tuned with a vafc) I pulled ahead at the start but once he winded up that engine I was at his rear bumper by 110

Yes sir I have seen the 05+ run mid 14's stock with a great driver. Most don't see it though because they can't get the 60ft down.

I could have sworn the guy I raced had something under his hood cuz he stayed by my side for a while It wasn't until top of 3rd gear that I started pulling away
