RSX-S : SRI, Exhaust
TL 5AT: J-Pipe, SRI
DIG:
While he was honking off, i accidently eased up a little. He went for it and I kinda hesitated for a split second and went. He got me about 3 cars in middle of third gear.
40 Roll:
I wasn't in VTEC range for a second, RSX was. Stood by him all of second. Third gear he started gaining. I left off after 2 car lengths. He was still going i don't know why and he came back to me saying he "smoked" me. I guess he thought I was still going.
CLIFFS: 3 car loss in dig
2 car loss in roll

HKS I believe. Not sure the size piping.
To the others, I did have an AEM CAI, but bracket broke, so I just hacked it and replaced it. Actually, the SRI is SUPER LOUD compared to the CAI. But yea, I'm getting heatsoaked bad.
It was an 05-06 model. I've raced an 02-04 before from a roll with exhaust and intake and won. The only thing I had at that time was a CAI.
BTW Iforyou: It's a k20z1, not a2

With what that RSX had, it shouldn't be unless the OP's friend is sandbagging.
My friend has an intake/exhaust on his RSX-S, and just like the tC, I left it behind with everything in my sig except the ATLP's.

1 -> Hazard Lights = If you can see these then you lost.
2 -> If you jump.. don't tuck you nuts in.. put'em to the pavement.
3 -> Keep it off the street.

he had just a CAI.. but it still Manual against my auto..i have SRI and Exhaust thats about it..but i wanna get a CAI..see what happens i got my short ram for 20 bucks from my friend so i couldnt refuse..lol..

Not a surprise. My RSXS was one of the baddest little cars I have ever owned. One well driven can compete with almost anything on the road. It would beat the IS300 and 330ci auto at the time and I hung on the rear bumper of my friends g35 coupe 6MT through 80, I always beat him when he messed up the launch, and it smoked the 02 WRX 5MT from a roll and always pulled it hard on the highway. That engine responds like hell to any modification and that car was so easy to drive well, great shifter and clutch, maybe the best I have ever experienced. This is a drivers race to begin with but that was a bit much, did you have your rims on?, that will do it.

u can mess up driving a 5AT, that is if you dont know how to launch the car/shifting right before redline. Did u use brake-torque on the dig? and don't do no 40 roll, that is your biggest mistake, you are at the lowest rpm's on 2nd gear..
Best is do 30mph roll, 3 honks, mash the pedal to the floor. u will immediately drpo to 1st gear, right at v-tec.
DO NO go over 30mph.. otherwise, it'd be worse than doing a 40 roll.
or 60 roll at 2nd.
Remember to race in. mexico.

I agree with SRI comments, they can be a double-edged sword. Not to look foolish, but I just want to rule everything out, it sounds like you weren't shifting your own gears, on the 40 roll you weren't it in the right gear, you know he was. If you were than it seems like your reaction was a bit off.

I think a 50 / 55mph roll would land you right into VTEC to start .. a 60mph roll would make you have to change gear almost immediately putting you back.
I guess it's just personal experience.

The 05-06 RSX-S is slightly faster stock vs stock than a TL Auto. The 02-04 is a good drivers race. I have found that some of those 05-06 RSX-S's can run 14.6-14.7 bone stock. I know that I dust my cousins 02 RSX-S though so thats all that matters to me as far as bragging rights!!

that is why u brake torque in "L" mode.. it will stay in first till close to redline, sometimes right at redline, depending on your tire spin in the beginning..
Don't hold the brake for too long either.. Just hit it right before the honks/flag.. should be 1 sec or less to brake torque and then release brake immediately, and adjust throttle accordingly.
I've raced this car so many times, i don't think u'd take me serious if i ever told u..
