Turbo RSX-S The other night some kid and his gf pulled up to me at a light in his turbo rsx, looking over and smiling at me...I heard his bov and see all his silly gauges on the pillar. Hes like "what do you have done to it"? Im like headers, catback...hes like "oh sounds quiet" (which it is at idle). Hes like I have blah blah 15psi blah header. So the light turns green I give him the jump even let him get his little turbo spooled up...then I romped on it from 15mph and blew past him like he was in reverse got up to about 70 and shut down, I can still hear him shifting away bov going...3 seconds later he catches up. We come up to another light, im like can you hear me now? 
Should of told his girl to hop into a real car.

Nice Kill Man, i got a SS and a RSX-S and yeah they can be fast as **** with mods, But like any car you gotta have a good driver. I ran a 95 GT i think it was 2 weeks ago from a 50 Roll and i beat him by 2 cars at 110 but yeah i believe that you kicked his ***

That's why I said "I doubt." It sounds like he was BSing about the claim of how much boost he was running, because to run that much boost he would either be running the stock internals on borrowed time, or running a forged-internal shortblock. In which case, why run only 15psi?

I don't give a **** how much power the RSX was making, a turbo FWD car on street tires will get its *** kicked by a stalled auto with a tire on a quick jaunt to 70mph. So on that note, GREAT KILL OP!

Excuse me Mr. Import savior, but the RSX lost. Who cares how much boost he was running. HE LOST.

I'm no turbo expert, but I do know that a properly-driven/setup RSX-S running 15psi will not have a fairly stock LS1 blowing by him "like he was in reverse." I didn't say the RSX should have won, I didn't say he must have had a bad driver... I just said that he probably was bullshitting about his 15psi claim. Just like idiots lie about their horsepower.
