Rep Power: 0 Ok, first off, Elevation your car is the **** and im glad you went with Cybernation too. Im loving the turbo. Its just completely amazing as you know.
Secondly, Its funny that everybody is freaking out about the 4th gear not hitting 120+ mph because with my car, I have the Integra Type R ecu in my car and the ecu has a fuel cut at 180 kmh (110 mph) and we were only able to hit 110 mph in 4th gear at about 7200 rpm's and the Integra Type R gear ratios are shorter than the type s for acceleration, where as the type S would get faster top end speeds with the longer gears.
So yes, even for the Type S tranny, its possible to hit 120's at the top of 4th gear.
Again, Im loving your type s man. Keep up the good work and lets hear some kill stories.
(As with my car, I have to take care of the fuel cut still and then get some fuel tuning and then its V8 killing time. )
Have fun man!

Rep Power: 0 The RSX doesn't have stock internals ... it hs a fully built engine and is @ 9:1 compression ... Scott, looking foward to the vid ... but you really should let me shoot one for ya. You've got my #, right?

Rep Power: 0 My computer went last week so I upgraded to XP and did some other stuff that needed to be done. Plus, it's hard to find topics relative to my ride on a Civic forum so I'm not on here much ...
