u bet they are! if you modded right they take mod very well just with an intake it get like 19.5 HP. But the Z is slightly faster! But for that one guy with the RSX, i think he's full of it. he claim 14.4 and no time or slip to prove it. So i call it bs. As for me i have video and slip. This is coming from a guy who own both car. So i can compare.

That is what some companies claim, but in reality 10-12 whp from a CAI is the norm on the RSX Type S. Still a pretty nice gain for a 2 liter 4 cylinder. The stock airbox is pretty restrictive.

If you are talking about at the crank, sure I guess you could say that. At the wheels, no way in hell. Stock RSX Type S typically dyno at around 165-170 at the wheels, every once in a while there is a freak with 175 whp stock. Hondata is nice, but honestly you are better off waiting to get a race header and exhaust or just exhaust, and the ITR intake manifold, and go for the Hondata flash #4(Cam crossover, often known as hitting Vtec, changed from 5800 to 5200 and rev limiter changed from 8100 to 8600). If he doesn't mind spending a little more money. The above listed parts, race header included, and ITR Camshafts, and the Hondata K20A flash(Also known as the ITR Flash, since the K20A is what is in the japanese Type R, and K20a2 is in the Type S). This should net him somewhere around 200-210 whp I believe. There are also Toda Spec A camshafts, ecu flash, and valve springs, but the jury is still out on this product.

220 hp to the wheel and a light body that is a deadly combination. I have seen a few people run low 13 with those mod! In fact i have a vid of someguy that ran that with the RSX!
