Area code 661 = Kern County, CA... somewhere in there.

It's in his location info

OP, good run. Don't see too many RSX owners that can talk about a cobalt kill and still give the cobalt props afterward.

x2.

And also, I agree, most likely the 'balt was running ~275ish. Unless he was spraying, was turbo, or had full internals.

where in the 661 are you? Theres one guy in Bakersfeild with a Maroon ss/sc who claims over 300whp but "his hood latch is broken" LOL. You ever run at the track? I saw a few real nice boosted rsx's at Fontana last weekend.

when you have the compression ratio of an rsx-s 8-9psi is seen as high boost. The 3psi probably makes more power than a stock ss/sc...

Unlikely.. You make it out to sound like some sort of Magic Car.

You might forget, I also own an import..

He's right if it is a Type-S.

The A3 will be about the same as stock on 8-9psi though

yeah he definitely wasn't anywhere near 300whp unless he was spraying

what turbo setup are you running? I kinda would expect any RSX-S turbo to kill an SS/SC with stock blower still...

u do realize i own a rsx i dont need 20+ psi like some srt-4 to make power or other factory turbo cars i could turn up the boost another couple pounds but im to conservative with my tune plus there are rsx-s owner with the gt30r turbo in the 450whp range on around 15psi on a stock engine so please take your weak liitle mazda somewhere else and as far as the other owner idk wat he had but i know he has put some money into that car being that we have mutual friends and im in 661=palmdale ,CA
