im about to do the long ass installation of the 2g 3sgte into my 1997 ST with a boost controller looking to do about 13psi...everyone is dissin my car now and when I get the engine in a few months I wanna run it up against a new Acura RSX Type - S...i think they do 210 at the crank? anyways ive driven it, so far the RSX seems faster than RWD Silvia SR20DET!.....just woundering if anyone knew how a front wheel drive 3sgte at 13psi would match up to a stock RSX type S before i put down alot of money on a bet...ive never driven a 3sgte so this if anyone who has one has done alot of racing please give me some feedback on how this thing matches up to the world of racing

QUOTE(MonsterBOX @ Apr 12, 2005 - 9:17 PM) difficult as in no traction? [right][snapback]270254[/snapback][/right] My guess that would be one thing, Also if you dont use the right trany, the gears are going to be dif, and also with out lsd my guess is a lot of wheel spin. Thats what makes me not want to do the swap. |

Thats what makes me not want to do the swap. [right][snapback]270256[/snapback][/right] i really wish i could take all of you guys out for a ride or something. one of my 1st impressions after driving my swaped car for the 1st time was "wow, this engine really feels right in the celica". i never really felt like traction was a problem. its one of those things that only happens when you want it too. sure i can break the tires loose in 2nd and sometimes even in 3rd gear, but this only happens when u WOT the throttle and really isint something that makes u feel like its slowing you down. its one of those things that gets your heart going and puts a smile on your face. any NA 4cylinder car has never given me any problems in a race. ....basically after the swap, you will no longer think of most honda/acura cars as competion.
