Considering that they are ABOUT the same weight... I would say it would be a driver's race...

the EM2 is a good 200 lbs (if not more) lighter than the EP3.
It would also depend which transmission you had, because the A3 in the RSX has a different FD gear than the A3 in the Si.

EM2=2595 EP3=2795 The EM2 definately has the advantage. The only thing is that engine weights a good 75lbs more that the D17 so this would make it a closer race, but still an EM2 advantage.
