Should be fine. It won't be the fastest car ever, but it will be fairly quick.

And for what it's worth, the RS chassis is not a DC2, it's a DC4.

well ill tell you the facts a 99-2000 si weights 2615 pounds an 94 and up integra rs weights 2529 pounds is even lighter than an integra type r(2579lbs) because it has no abs so its better than having an si so yes it should be quick with the right parts

yes my thoughts exactly. that was one of the reasons why I bought an integra RS. Dont get me wrong not that the gsr and type r are bad. but this car came at the right price. and it dont have a sunroof. I hate sunroofs.

if ur looking to use ur DC for autox/circuit then you shouldnt really worry about the power it puts out. as long as ur happy with what it produces... dont listen to anyone who says b16 DC is a waste.

yes dont list to someone who sais a b16 on an integra is a waste of time. becase they are also saying 99-00 si is a waste of time. if you wanted to put a b16 in an integra ls it will still move bcase the weight of an ls is 2667 pounds not much from an si
