who would you put your money on in a 1/4 mile race my 2000 mustang v6 w/ knn cold air intake or a stock 2002 rsx type s and why..?

[1Clean6]

Type S, more power, significantly lighter.

Yes, you have more torque, but its not enough. Those cars are about 500 pounds lighter than a V6 stang.

[itschristorres8]

rsx type S
why?!
because when my car was stock i raced one and loss. and cold air intake wouldnt have made me won.

RSX...those things are quick.

like a cai actally can give you enough preformance gains...

only cai = basically stock(+ or - 5ish hp most of the time)

[scubasteve041186]

rsx probably just cause of the weight. i dunno try it out? lol you might get him in the begining but thats it.. would be my geuss atleast

[Sa-WaitNoMustang900Turbo]

well, they're not all that fast, v6 stang is near as fast out of th box (def. faster if 2005+) and has far better bolt on potential

a 15.2 1/4 will beat any stock v6 mustang. just having a cai will hardly make up for the difference of conditions between runs

[Sa-WaitNoMustang900Turbo]

will a cai (done right) even give you a tenth on an otherwise stock car?

I've raced 2 05 V6's and neither impressed me. The first guy I beat stopped next to me at the next light, and asked me if I had a V8 Not like my license plate says anything, maybe he was too far back to read it tho.

[Sa-WaitNoMustang900Turbo]

lol(to cai preformance)

at least they look good and can get your mafs oily...

edit: a 2005+, while inconsistent off line w/o good driver due to open rear, will run 15 flats given the right conditions, def. faster than any other stock v6

Good thing I am tuned Haven't lost to one yet. Course most of them have been bone stock with a pilot who suffered from a midlife crisis...

[itschristorres8]

point blank
i have a 2000 mustang v6
when my car was bone stock except just a K&N filter...just the filter
i lost to an RSX type S. i raced 2 of them a few times and lost, i know it was stock cuz the exhaust was stock, and rims, and springs. and U KNOW! that first thing those guys do is put the big fat fart can out back. then cut the springs.

i shifted at redline and lost i shifted a lil past redline and still lost as if it help. and i switch gears pretty quick when im racing

unless the guy drivin the rsx sucks
id put all my money on the rsx type s
idk about just an RSX though

no they wont. they run 15.2-15.3 all day. the ones you saw run had tunes by justin @ vmp.

[DanishStallion]

I was going downtown for lunch when one of those came up next to me and wanted to race wroom wroom i was trying to ignore the taunting, when green light came on he stalled.... i laughed my ass off so hard, i rolled up to next red light he rolled down the window and whistled at me i asked him so you stalled back there huh with a giggle, and he said ive seen and heard some of these can take GT's, green light came up and i left him in the dust.

wish i had this shit on video that would have been priceless

[Sa-WaitNoMustang900Turbo]

and thats why most of you guys have half way to full bolt ons and can own any rsx, s or not. Keep those ricers in their place! (well atleast the fart can, spring cut rsx's)

edit: forgot about that tune, well they're still the fastest v6es and a match for an rsx (werent those rentals and could have had a n eve better tune if not rentals?)

[itschristorres8]

that car is a v6?!

yes, the rental company has a more complex ecu that cannot be fully tuned to the perameters available on "unlocked" ecu's. the rental was a 5 speed as well.
