rsx type s vs stock z? id say the type s would need a good bit of help... 50 shot of juice would def make it a win for the rsx 
if he could hook up..and had I/H/E has to make up for the torque difference somehow..

hehe... it's still a honda (well, acura but same difference). 
I respect that car, but at 210 hp with a 0-60 over 6 seconds it will take a little more than just an intake and exhaust so be ready to spend a few bucks. My lightly moded Z schooled my buddies lightly moded RSX Type S every time we played (even when I was stock) and the few that I've seen at the track were trapping et's in low ('ish) 15's basically stock with decent drivers. I don't want to get any facts wrong, but that's what I've seen from my experience.
I don't want to magazine race either, but I checked a few places online and my stack of Motor Trend's and they list the '02 RSX Type S anywhere from 0-60 in 6.7 (MT magazine) to 0-60 in 7.2 (MT online), and the Z is pretty consistantly rated in the low 5 second range with a over a second advantage in the 1/4. It will take some money to close that gap. Either way they both are cool cars so no worries... enjoy the ride.

I raced an rsx-s the other day on I-5 near fife. It was dark blue, with an exhaust for all i could see. I started in the middle of 3rd, and when i shifted to 4th i was about a car and a half ahead already. I stopped a little after i just got into 4th.
