Same motor in the base RSX and 02-05 Si, except that the intake manifold is different (Si's is basically the same as the Type-S, but the base RSX has a two-stage plastic manifold). There may be some other differences, too, but that's the most obvious one.

Whichever way it's set up, the base RSX's intake manifold has a section that rotates, switching between longer and shorter intake runners.
