I spanked an RSX today from a roll. don't know what he had in it OIm sure it was stock. but he loved my car. 
I always thought all rsx's had a lot more horsepower.. I guess I was wrong.

Wiping out a GS does not equal killing an ITR.

The TC's an OK car for the money i suppose....But their popping up all over the place, at the rate the TC is growing theres going to be as many TC's on the road as there are civics!!! I definatly choose to stay with the ralliart!

The tc is a nice car. For girls. Ralliarts smoke em all day. And as for the supercharger, it wont be worth it. Not from TRD anyways. I used to work at a Toyota/Scion and i think TRD is crap. Sure its legal and sure it makes stuff a bit faster and has warranty, but its expensive as hell and not really worth it.

I have a 2004 ralliart lancer and one of my friends just got a 2003 type-s for a graduation present... It pretty much went just like thunder said it would, i tore him up off the line, but into 2nd gear he started pulling (barley). pretty much after he shifted to 3rd i could tell this wouldnt be a victory for the ralliart, he beat me by just about a car.

^^^ oh don't think I am. I knew it wouldn't be easy. It's the weight, they have on us is remarkable (almost 500lbs).
It's mostly thou LIFT, it shoots up almost 30-40hp when it kicks in @6k... compare to MIVEC which I think bumps up 5-10hp. They have very agrresive cams... the pitch note/power is noticable.

Not trying to be a smart *** but the GT-S costs $10K more than the RA so it better be faster. The RA wasn't meant to compete with it stock for stock.. just like it or the GT-S isn't meant to compete with a Lotus Elise. Weight is almost as big a factor as power.
