I sall this post on clubsi and one guy was talking about a guy who hit a 14.7 with this setup...
skunk2 coils
custom cold air intake piping and k&n filter
RSX(not type S) header
Custom 2.5" exhaust
"spoom" wheels with drag radials
If that's true, I'm very interested.

its probably the hp header for the base rsx. we have the same motor im sure the exhaust manifolds cant be that different

i dont think it would fit b/c ground controls wouldnt fit.

strange I wonder why. My progress springs from a 01 ex fit. Maybe the set up for coilovers is completely different all together. Besides, you'll want a higher spring rate than what 01 ex springs have

stock RSX header is the same as our stock header, he may be referring to an aftermarket RSX header such as HP. Interesting post though, especially on Clubsi.

i would want to see a time slip though. that time looks to good to be true w/ the kind of mods he got.

02SilverSiHB: i do want a higher spring rate. thats why im waiting for skunk2 to come out w/ there coilovers b/c their spring rates should be higher than ground controls. anyone knows when skunk is suppose to release their coilovers?
