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

If you just dump the clutch and floor it, traction will become an issue. If you find the sweet spot, it make all the difference. It does come down to driver. I am not saying ours will or will not beet the RSX, I haven't tried yet. Now rolling on the other hand, our cars with the 3sgte in it will fly past even the all-tracs. I have had a 240 with the SR20 roll up along side me and floor it. I hesitated thinking about it and at 70, dropped to third and caught him before 4th. Passed him and then had the Fuel Cutt-off engage as I have not installed the FCD yet. Our cars are quick and if you are looking for a sleeper, then you are on the right forum with the right car. Our cars have an element of unknown or surprise. Not many people know what they are capable of, even with the stock 3s setup. If it is another Toyota enthusiast, they know.
