Okay... whatever. Note that both cars are rated 160 hp @ 6500 rpm therefore they are both making ~129 lbs-ft at 6500 rpm. Just because the base rsx makes more torque between idle and 4700 doesnt make it a worse torque curve.The base RSX reaches its peak at 4,000, then it drops off a cliff.
Also, you are assuming that the type-S is gutless below 6000 rpm, which it is NOT. In fact, it makes torque close to the Si's peak from 3000 to 5500.
