Tip tronic is for wussys
F everyone who embraces it.
The car is slow because its 160hp and weighs a lot. Bore and stroke has a lot to do with where the power is. Its a base model engine!
Type S is 200hp IIRC and will rev way smoother.

What do you mean it doesn't have "real vtec"

It states there that the K series engines feature vtec

But because it is STOCK. I've had comparisons when my WRX was stock. And the power difference was still immense. Like with the Suby it seems like it had sooo much power potential like it can go even with a stock set up. But with the stock set up of an RSX, I feel like it's an uphill climb for power. But I guess WRX's turbo has a huge contributing factor to this.

its actually a k20a3, meaning its the base engine
and to the thread starter, no the rsx your driving does not have real vtec, so you shouldn't really feel any power crossover like you would on a type-s
And you should slap a race header on that car so the rpms can move a lot faster for you and your mom
