Yeah, good ol' KBB seems to be off on their numbers. I have found a mistake in their data more than once. Hell, I drive mine every weekend and I know it doesn't have to be revved that high to get the power. Regardless of that, if this guy drives his GS-T right, he will win.

I was going to say something about that, too. If you take a n/a engine, which needs no spool time and apply the 2,500 rule...then the engine would make peak HP at every rpm. That was be insanely cool...but it doesn't happen. But the Eclipse will reach peak HP before a VTEC engine because for some reason VTECs make peak HP on average of like 6800RPM or somewhere around that.

the power of a VTEC doesn't come on till about 98 million RPM vs the 4G63's 6000RPM. So if you don't go deaf and blind from hearing his motor rev that high, you should win without a doubt.

1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS-T Manual
Horsepower 210 @ 6000 RPM
Torque 214 @ 3000 RPM
Curb Weight 2899 lbs.

Now add up the stuff you have done to it + + + + = even faster

2006 Acura RSX TYPE S Manual
Horsepower 201 @ 7800 RPM
Torque 140 @ 7000 RPM
Curb Weight 2840 lbs.

YOU WILL WIN!!!!!!!!!!

P.S.--I'm drunk again


If he gets a VTEC controller then it might be a different story... Alot of my friends set their VTEC to kick in at 4-5k.
