Gsr Or Type S

[high_on-rice]

i was wondering i am about to get my first car and i am stuck between the integra GSR and the rsx S so wich one is good for a beginer and does the turbo get along with the I-VTEC and the VTEC??

Are you kidding me? Get the S... Unless you're one of those beginners that stalls out in the middle of every intersection...then you'd just be an embarrassment to other Type-S owners. They respond very well to mods and you can turbo both just fine- but remember the high compression on the S if you go the FI route.

The Type S.

A street RSX (not on slicks or anything either) is in the 11's with their stage 2 or 3 kit.

There's also lots of NA mods, NOS kits, and Jackson Racing has a supercharger. Soon Comptech will be releasing one too.

well I really like both cars alot... however a few things to think about are...

1. Price: the gs-r will surely be cheaper
2. Mileage: Type -s will more than likely have less miles on it
3. aftermarket: while probly not true for long I believe the gs-r still has a slight advantage in options for aftermarket parts.
4. performance: ehh about the same.
5. Styleing: hmmm your call, I think they both have strenths and weaknesses.
6. Handleing: I'm not sure but I believe the S has a better suspension

if ur going to turbocharge the type-s, theres another step u have to do, which is to reprogram the ecu. it cost about 30-40 dollars more if u buy a kit from rev hard, and what u do is remove the ecu send it to their company so the can have it reprogamed, then they will send it back and u install it. this is true for the rev hard hard kits, so im thinking any of the other kits for the type-s would have to a similar procedure.

The other turbo kits use different systems - The GReddy uses E-manage and Cybernations is about to release Gaurdian. That's what you'd use for engine management.
