All RSX Type S DC5 owners chime in... whats should be my next mods?
okay so here's what I got, 04 Type S:
(older pic, may not have all the mods pictured)
Quaife Limited Slip Differential
Comptech Sway/Tie Bar Combo CoAxial
Comptech Sport Springs
Hondata/K-Pro ECU reflash
Comptech Race Header
Comptech Exhaust Catback
Comptech Icebox Intake
Azenis RT-615 P225/45/17
what Should I do next??? i've pratically threw on everything Comptech.... I have heard this raises the value especially when resale cuz comptech is a great brand... oh yea the handling is like dramatically improved and these tires are bitchin'...I can't break 'em loose... and understeering is history... with the sway bars this thing is like a magnet to the asphalt...
so here's what I was thinking:
1. Forced induction...either Greddy or Comptech supercharger?
2. Shorten the tranny gears a little?
I want to be like TAKUMI!!
smoke skyline's with a ae86.... jk
I don't want an all-out track car...I still want this to be streetable...

06? Looks like an 02-04 to me. Anyway... Why dont you just get the Comptech SC since everything else is Comptech.

my bad, 04 is what i meant to say... i keep thinking 06...since its the year 06. and i keep saying 06 a lot cuz freakin' sister just bought an '06 IS250, my friend with 06 tC, and parents about to get 06 lexus GS...
k-series are the god for n/a honda owners. Get some cams and springs retainers. That is what i say
Edit- get a type r wing and a lip kit 2 and lose the mud flaps. But its not my car, thats just my saying.

no need to get a FD especially if you are going FI. I have a CTSC. If you go down that road you are gonna want the following:
the SC
larger injectors
fuel pump (depending on boost level)
smaller pulley (depending on what you want to boost)
a CAI if you want better bumbers than an icebox
a header (raceheader once again for numbers)
exaust
and PLEASE don't go FI without upgrading your breaks.
If you are not sure if you are going FI or if its turbo/SC then work on basics like I/H/E, suspension, and brakes.

i would get a toda kit for your car, you already got the k-pro, lsd, and grippy tires. IMO that sounds like a good set-up
well i would've gone with CAI and bypass valve...but i got buddies who've fucked up their motors with CAI and hydro lockin'... had to pay 5grand to replace their K20s....
so i'm being on the safe side as far as intake goes....

honestly you have to really submerge your intake to hydrolock. I have gone through quite a bit of water and I just put in the clutch and coast through it. no biggie.

It has better gains than the Icebox and since it is a air box that means no hydro lock. And it addsthat BLING factor. </TD></TR></TABLE>
ARC really doesnt make that much of an overall power gain, just improved throttle respose. At least that is what it is on the b-series motors.

full adjustable coilovers, like tein or JIC
TODA header instead
and if you can afford it, like someone else said, just get the whole toda setup. cams, retainers, cam gears, header. all the good stuff. itll cost the same as forced induction lol but its like the best of the best.

id say get some brakes..... new pads, new rotors..... slotted not drilled, they crack and in all honesty...... BUY THE ENERGY SUSPENSION MOUNT INSERTS.... i swear i just bought them and put them in, its the best 25 bucks you can spend on your car, NO MORE WHEEL HOP , more traction and less motor rock.

that's what I was thinking...considering that all of the mods listed only yielded 201 HP
Anyhow, back to the original question...I'd have to agree with the majority here and say that you need better brakes and possibly a suspension upgrade. I'd also go with a different air intake system if it were me.

eh, i meant to say the car is 201hp in stock form... i have no idea how fast it is now but i did run some 13s in the 1/4... and that for sure ain't 201hp no more...
