DC5 mod list, what should i do? how fast are you?
Well im going to be buying a DC5 for my second car, its going to be my daily driver, commuter but still has to have some kick to play with sometimes you know? my buddy just bought his so we are in the same boat. This isnt going to be some weekend racer car just a normal car but every now and then you know you run into something worth messing with. I have a gsr crx for my fast car but i know there are some people on here with these mods im going to list, how does it pull? hang with an s2000? 1/4 60ft 0-60 dyno runs all this is appreciated...
we were thinking...
Hondata reflash
CAI
header
Cat-back
AEM pulleys(maybe)
(FUTURE MODS will be type r cams, IM,)
suspension will just be some tein springs or so and possibly a spoon rear sway bar but thats pretty much it...
HP wise and torque wise with or without the pulley, how does it feel? run really strong? what about a pull from a roll? whats a nice kill list you know??

I would go with 2005 RSX-S... It already has the type r cams and the hondata kpro just came out for it. I have one and I absolutely love it. I just broke it in recently so I haven't raced it yet. If you are looking for the perfect daily driver the 2005 RSX-S is it.

Re: DC5 mod list, what should i do? how fast are you? (SoFresh2Def)
problem 1, im not spending 25k. I have 2 cars lined up. a blue A spec S with 77k miles for 13k and a black one with 29k miles for 15,500 but im gonna offer him 13,500 because he is having a baby this month so he needs it...i hate buying new cars because u screw urself value wise..im paying cash, i hate bills.. id rather just buy cams then spend 10k more for cams, IM and a TINY beter gears..and these cams still dont have the duration the type r has..
anyway at that the R's will come later but as of now those 4 mods how we talking performance? my buddy has an 03 with header, catback, reflash, k&n drop in and i watched him at the road course, that ****** moves! now he has ITR cams, ITR IM, toda flywheel, carbon fiber hood, light work wheels so im sure its alot faster now..i know these Kseries are crazy with mods HP wise. I mean hondata reported 20hp at the wheels from a reflash stock..thats nuts..just reflash and intake was at 190whp..so im guessing with header and catback maybe 200whp..figure hondata IM gasket, itr IM and itr cams, right up at 210-215whp...thats crazy, i have NEVER seen a car react that much besides a V8...i mean a type-s at 215whp whats that in 1/4 approx high 13's with decent tires? not to bad for about $2000 mods..

kpro is where its at. with those mods done right, i would expect 190whp. not sure about tq tho.
