Default h22a accord coupe vs. rsx type-s

my 92' accord coupe with h22a swap pulled out on an rsx type-s while rolling at about 30mph.....rsx had exhaust & intake not sure about header..my car has exhaust and intake no header...i know that the rsx type-s has 200hpand even though it has less torque than the h22 i always thought they would be faster...how fast is the rsx in comparison to the TL Type-s?

Well supposedly with just i/h/e & kpro tuning a type-s can be extremely deep in teh 14s and high 13s on slicks. You are probably at or near the same weight as the other guy and have a better tq curve. That and you probably out shifted him as well.

I've raced a TL Type-S, looked like maybe 99-2002?? (no idea) and we ran dead even at 14.5.

prepare to be owned if you're in your accord.

if you're in the TL-S, it should be a fair fight.

i beat my girl's 2003 tl-type s..not by much but I had a faster 2nd and 3rd gear..then she caught up a little bit at about 110mph..we stopped racing at 115mph when my accord hit the mph limit..but i was very surprised to whoope the rsx type-s...the guy racing was very pissed....and just so you guys know...I TOTALED MY ACCORD YESTERDAY MORNING GOING TO WORK! im very sad since i just swapped this h22 about 2 months ago. An 83 year old lady joined traffic from a shopping center and crossed 3 lanes trying to get tothe left turn lane..... and ended up in my lane and gave me about 20 feet of space to make a decision ..i was going about 50mph.

You saw a woman merging into traffic from a shopping center, cross three lanes into yours and gave you 20 feet to stop yet you ran right into her.
