Yea i'll admit hes got a nice car, and I give him props for being one of the first. But the BS really needs to end.

I am eagerly waiting for you to post this video of 125 in 4th

There are only 2 ways my math is wrong

1) You have gear ratios or final drive ratios other than a stock RSX-S

2) This age old formula that has been used countless times "somehow" doesn't apply to the RSX. lease:

I hope your planning on further tuning because your AF ratio is horrible looking on your dyno chart.

you can make all the video you want, a stock speedometer isnt much good past 100, on any car. you did internal mods as well right, cause with 11.0:1 comp. you cant run 20 psi and not **** something up.

EXTREME props to this guy. All you haters need to get a life. I pretty much doubt ANY turbo'd D17 no matter WHAT you do to it cannot touch this car. This is a RSX-S for fvckin god sakes.

Your right its an RSX-S, with a 2 liter 200 horsepower iVTEC engine, this is not some gift from god its a f*ckin integra replacement. Don't get me wrong i like it an all. But this is not the end all be all of 4 cylinder sports cars.

As for hating, It doesn't matter what you drive from a geo metro to a corvette Z06, if your full of **** im gonna let you know.

thanks for the props. as to all others wait for the video. i promise you it goes 125 in 4th. think around 30 in 1st around 62 in 2nd around 90 in third why would the 4th not be able to pull 125 its a longer gear. and ps i saw the math,

you can make all the video you want, a stock speedometer isnt much good past 100, on any car.
come on man

WTF? I can not believe you guys are ripping on him and telling him he is full of sh*t over "if his car does 125mph at the top of 4th." Grow the fu(k up. Damn people. He has a sweet *** ride that is fast as hell. The only problem he has is traction. And FYI my SI does 82mph at the top of 3rd and he has 1200rpms more to go in third. So why do you not believe that his car would do 125mph in 4th? Do you think your sh*t don't stink? You do not know everything.

On a side note, I can not wait to get my EP boosted by CN.
