a fully bolt-on base may hold its own against a STOCK type-s
but boosting it will surpass a n/a type-s

X2 N/a Would almost be a waste of money. I'd say save up and do it right.

Base rsx's can make very good numbers boosted, and they can make some pretty decent numbers n/a, a base with bolt on's, kpro, and stage 2 cams can make a solid 200 whp

that's a lot of mods just to hit 200whp 
all estimates:
i/rh/e =1000
k-pro =1000
stg2 cams = 800-1000? idk
thats near 3 grand
another grand (or 2) will get you a turbo set-up thats pushing near 260whp
from there on, skies the limit

You can probably get that bundled together with "The Tornado."
Personally, I would not waste money on bolt-on's for a base RSX. If you want performance, boost it or sell it and get an RSX-S.

actually im buildin a k20a3 for my em2 and if you put stock type s cams in it and stock type s pistons you will have the exact same motor. the only thing that is diff between the two is the compression ration of the pistons and that there is no vtec lobes on the exhaust cam in the a3 as in the a2 there are lobes on the exhaust cam. so there spend like 500 on some stock cams and pistons and youll be ready to go.

is this is true im getting myself a base model. i would think the valvetrain between the S and base would be different too.

Don't listen to this stupid idiot.. it takes more then just getting some cams and pistons to making an A3 to become an A2. You'd be a fu|<ing idiot if you follow this dumbass.
the k20a2 is COMPLETELY different then the k20a3
trying to take a k20a3 into a k20a2.. you might as well buy a k20a2 or just fully build your A3.

Re: who has an base rsx and whats the most hp you got out of it (T_Virus)
