Default My car is slow

Well I don't know if it was a black type R with green wheels or what, but this kid was fast. Saw him on the highway driving home and we ran twice and he ended up just barely pulling on me before I shut down because we were going way too fast. If it was a type r does a type r really pull as hard as a NA S2k with bolt-ons? Mind you this was from a third gear roll.

no way, a Type R shoud not be pulling from you if its stock, i pull on a type R, 2 cars, and i know what a Type R should do, i use to own one, run him again, check your oil, and where your shifting at, im sure you would pull on him, or am i wrong

I don't know this person. He was definately not stock. Im guessing it was a type r or a integra with a swap in it. I have pulled on my friends rsx type s with bolt ons a good 5 cars atleast from a dig and from a roll so I know its not my driving. My oil is fine, I checked it two days ago, and I swas shifting around 8200rpm.

You might get better input in the Street Encounters forum. Would you like me to move this thread?

No its okay not a big deal for me...you can move it if it better fits in that section.

OngBak...im not sure. I know the scream on the B series was killer and it not bad on the K so I couldn't tell just by the vtec switch. My car is also kind of loud. He was bouncing off of the limiter though.

why not at 9k? is it better to shift at 8.2k? just wondering. Never know, he might be upset as well. He prob thought he could pull harder but you stayed next to him
and what RPM did you start punching @ 3rd?

I have a AP2 which redlines at 8k not 9 Mark. I punched it around 6000rpm.
