Rep Power: 376 my guess would be the integra type r for turns. except i think the rsx type s has a slightly faster 1/4 mile.

Rep Power: 0 Umm...I had a '97 Prelude and I can tell you that it aint all that quick. It had 200 hp but it was heavy as ***! The Type S would definitely take it, and I would venture that the Type S is an improvement over the Type R.

Rep Power: 0 Well... TypeR's B18C is a lot more respectable engine than the K series, specially for circuit racing, but for drag racing, they gave almost the same on their respective cars. It performs better than the RSX Type-S in acceleration, braking, toruning, etc.

Rep Power: 0 Because the shorter front end on the 7th Gen Civic make it REALLY difficult to swap a B18C engine in it. Even though the K20 have a bigger displacement, the head of the B18C, fuel system and the intake manifold assembly on the head makes it really dificult to make that swap.
But check in 6th, 5th and even 4th gen civics... you will find B series as a favorite, and B18C as the MOST WANTED ENGINE!!

edit: oh wait on the illegal thing. they made an integra type R in 2001 didn't they.... so then it would be legal. but, as already stated, mechanically it would be even far more difficult than the K20 swap.

Rep Power: 257 prelude is out of a question, a good driver in a 2000 si will smoke any prelude, anyways, type r is my guess for the track, and type s for the drag however i think the type r looks more agressive than the new type s

To each their own i guess huh?

Rep Power: 0 well the prelude is just a big engine but too heavy so comparing it tho those two cars is unfair it belongs to another category
1/4 mile = rsx-s
turns lap times = type r
lightest = type r

Rep Power: 0 k-series have more potential then b-series and right now they are still developing new and better parts for the k and some dyno-charts off crsx show 210-220 with i/h/e and k-pro-tuned. Most b-series dont even reach that with basic mods even with some internals. Btw forgot the name of the company but i think with there new cams on a k20a2 with type-r mani, hondata im gasket, cai, rh, exhuast, and k-pro tuning got 230 hp.

Rep Power: 0 type r would win. if i'm not mistaken i thought a type r ran a 14.8 qt. ( i read that in one of my magizines) and the 2002-04 type s ran a 15.2 qt. i don't know what the 05 type s runs so if someone could help me out there. but i do know for sure the jdm honda integra type r owns all.

Now back to topic.
I choose the Type R for everything except for 1/4 mile. The Type R's are amazing cars in the turns.
