Finally, I wouldnt want more than 350whp in an RSX, its just not that practical, unless you like racing from 60mph rolls.

why the hell would I need to research traction control?
I am speaking from expirience since I OWN an RSX-S with roughly 200whp AND an LSD...and I can tell you that 1st gear is pointless in my particular setup, even with Potenza RE040's and the Falken Azeni's on my stock wheels. It spins around 6k on cold pavement and spins on the track as well. I could imagine how bad it would be if I didnt have the LSD.
So...unless you own an RSX and know how it responds to increased torque and hp then I believe YOU need to research. Better yet, go drive a 350whp RSX WITH an LSD and tell me it doesnt have traction issues.
My race vehicle pulls consistant 1.15-1.16 60' and you're telling ME I need to research traction control?

Well, I'm not saying there won't be any traction problems, but there are quite a few Cybernation Stage 2 Type S' on www.clubrsx.com and they seem to be doing fine. Of course on the track, most of them use slicks. And you can always turn down the boost for the street.
all the vids I have seen, and the 3 Cybernation Stage 1, and even 1 Greddy Turbocharged i have seen in person have spun once fully spooled in 1st on the street, and on the track.
None of those cars had slicks though, Most people wont wanna swap out the brakes on their Type S' to Base model brakes so they can fit a smaller wheel on there unless they're die hard on gettin that good slip posted on clubrsx

...you can get ANY car to hook..its about the driver
AND im POSITIVE 60-1ek knows just a... umm good word here..."tad" bit about traction issues Just because you have a "claimed" race car DOES NOT mean you know anything about traction and/or anything else having to due with cars...not trying to put you down or anything but you seem to act liek you know alot and have been getting corrected a few times but the people that actually do know....
-Skittle
OH YEA!!!----TURBO THAT BITCH!!

Haha. I would have to go down to around 6psi to make 350 in my Street honda bro. On street tires, my car is trapping 141. Its called boost by gear. First gear 10psi, 2nd gear 18 psi, 3rd gear 24psi, 4th gear 30psi. Boost by gear, traction control, what ever you want to call it. And potenza's, azenis'....LOL. Those tires suck at the track. The azenis tires are road race tires that shouldn't see the drag strip. That is why you spin like crap. Not cause your mad trq y0. Get a better suspension setup and an AVCR and watch your mad spin decrease.

2. Boost by gear? or "gear specific boost" I seriously hope you werent trying to teach me about shit I learned with imports years ago? I suppose your gonna tell me what VHT is next right? save yourself "bro" I already know.
3. 141 on street tires, congrats, thats a nice number.
4. AVCR ? WTF would I need that for? You're right I need Gear specific boost, or RPM-based boost, or scramble boost on my f!@#ing NA car

5. and about you people not believing me? oh well, no sweat off my back, I believe I already posted a timeslip in my profile and it's been there the whole time. I'm not here to piss people off, I'm here because I will be in town this weekend and I wanted to meet some Florida people, but one thing I do NOT like is when people tell me I know nothing about cars when thats hardly the case.
