3sgte in an ST vs RSX Type - S Stock Options

[MonsterBOX]

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

i think the only reason u dont see swaped celicas running 12-13s is because the ct26 turbo cant make that type of power. if you look at what the mr2 guys have done with the 3sgte, you can basically make300-400hp with the right fuel and turbo.

ive never been at a track, and i really dont care if i go or not. in my opinion 1/4 tracks are for awd cars or anything thats not wearing street tires.

there will always be a faster car then what u own, it just depends on how much money u spend. the point i want to make is that with the swap you will be more then able to hold your own against other fast cars on the road and the car will work as a good daily driver too.
