VIDEO: '05 TL AT vs RSX type S / Evo MR

just installed my magnaflows...so i went around driving with my friend....he was recording most of the trip. First off...

2002-2004 RSX type S with Intake / Exhaust
he flew by me a couple of times, then we caught a quick red light so we went at it...i think he got a bad launch but still, if the mighty k20a2 RSX-S was that powerful as most clubrsxers said....he should've caught up (btw i had a 05 RSX before)

next up...went on the highway to check the drone....
an Evo MR ( i think ) was cutting across and zig zagging through traffic...so i just caught up to him (i was in teh empty carpool lane....)
i paced the evo for a while, he went, i catch up....we both slow down...after that i just gunned it....i guess after he heard my loud 4" intake he went as well...

as you can see in the video....5spd AT's 4th gear sucks balls as most of u know

just thought i'd share

So the only performance mod you have is Magnaflow and Intake i think as it said on the video. I know the 4th Gear sucks that y i always shut down after 3rd unless i know who im against . Nice Runs though , Do some more mods and try again with the Evo.

I hate fourth gear so much, so I shut it down once I shift into fourth, around 110mph. I didn't know the AEM intake was 4" in diameter, that's huge.




I posted a couple comments on your videos by the way.

4th gear..lol..man..it takes quite a bit of time before the power kicks in in 4th gear..I think you have to wait untill 120mph before it starts picking up speeds again...at least from my experience that's true...110-120mph...stupidly slow....

Haha....whenever I race my friends evo i get destroyed...but its putting about 300whp lol

I usually pull on my other friends RSX-S just as much as you do....every time we race. And thats with my 19's on lol

And yeah, 4th gear does BLOW. We can stretch 3rd to about 110mph, but after that, it just CRAWLS. I can't imagine how long it would take to max out....

from my experience, the wait is only from 110-120mph, when it reaches 120mph, the power kicks in again (you can fill the push against your back).
