Default DC5 and EP comparisons

Can someone please tell me some stuff about the DC5 and EP?

Not just stuff, but like base HP, 1/4 mile times, etc.

Thanx.

Yeah, the base RSX has a dual runner intake like the ol GSR. Good for a little more grunt. The Civic has a typical intake.

If you run a 16.2 in a ep you can't drive or are at a horrible track.

Typically it's more like 15.6-15.8

I have yet to see a ep run a 15.6-15.8 in stock trim here. The best anyone could do was a 16.2 in the 1/4. With hondata on the ep I have seen low 15.2-15.4.

So your comment on stock Si's running 15.6-15.8 is very rare, and I have yet to see one run that time.

And as for the comment on the Stock Si's having 132 tq, I stand corrected bro Good job . I can't be perfect all the time. hahahaa..

Doesn't the EP have the dual runner intake as well? Just curious.

It has the same intake as the rsx-s. the base model rsx gets a plastic unit.

The Si is eared a little shorter than the RSX and has balance shafts for some reason. It does indeed share the same intake manifold with the S so power output has the potential to be higher.

The Si is also shorter in length by over 7" than the RSX.

The RSX-S has the largest brakes and a 6-speed.
