I was going to say, a stock GTI is quicker than a new Si. They fail hard IMO. Even my buddies turbo Si pulled me as hard as a tuned EVO, which isn't that impressive considering the money dumped into it. The last RSX Type-S's were more powerful and tuneable because they don't have electronic throttle. Although I pulled on one of those too.

the civic si is actually supposed to respond to mods better than the rsx but when i had bolt ons i raced other si;s with the same mods and pulled every time. i wanna say numbers dont lie because they do get better numbers mod for mod but something doesnt add up.

peak #'s might be better, but every graph i've seen is extremely peaky for the SI's. maybe RSX-S has better curve. btw, have you dynoed/tracked since you finished up that turbo?
