SS/TC vs BOOST'd RSX

A buddy of mine just picked up a 02 RSX with a GReddy Turbo Kit on it. He was looking to get a baseline run in. So showed up last night brought my laptop and we went and data logged his car. After a few pulls and some tweaking finally got the car to hot 8.9PSI and staying in a nice A/F Ratio.

1st Run 30mph:

I had 1/2 till top of 3rd and he hit fuel cut.

2nd Run 40mph(now on 7PSI):

I jumped out 1/2 till top of third then by 110 or so probably 2 cars out.

Bump




After some more tuning and data logging last night looks like we have the higher boost issue fixed. Will rerun this weekend with the car on 10PSI.

I wanted a RSX for the longest time. I had a 94 Teg LSVTEC. I thought I was the fastest man on earth LOL. Oh the good old day.....

Anyway I don't know much about boosted N/A Honda's. Are they pretty stout and reliable?

Lol yea that's a 5 year old (HD) camera. When I film I use my T2i but I won't just let any use it. Bought a LCD screen for my GoPro today so placement should be alot better.

Nice runs. He needs to ditch that greddy kit though. I tuned one on gas then later on E85 on 10lbs and it just felt so slow compared to another friend's with a 60-1 turbo and full race manifold. His trapped 115 on only 9psi, we tuned it on more boost but it hasnt been back to the track since. The one with the greddy kit should be coming with me to the track this year as well. Still a fun car, just needs a real turbo on it!

That's the plan. He's a big Honda nut and picked this car up for $3800. He's wanting to see how far he can push it till he has to go bigger turbo.
