and no one said the rsx was slow. i just said i beat one and was relatively unimpressed at how it kept up
did you not understand my previous post?
most likely the car with bigger displacement will have a higher peak torque, but not necssarily horsepower. the engine that can keep the torque up longer (rpm) will have a higher peak hp. horsepower is number derived drectly from torque+rpm. if you change torque you will change horsepowe automatically. vtec/vvti/ztec all help in making more torque at higher rpms which turns out in higher hp.
