lol oh man. Yes VTEC is a turbo....

The Type-S driver has a 2.4 litre engine with real vtec. The K20A2 makes 200hp the K20A3 MAKES 160!!!.

Comon guys, I know you have more knowledge then that. Your sounding silly here...

Yes i already knew that about the HP differance between the 2 cars. But a K24 w/ a k20a2 head whoopie do. so what hes making 210 to the crank now. So that would put him around 185 to 190 to the wheels. He wont have a chance with me anyways. If he decided to throw on a turbo kit or s/c then yeah he would get me. But that race will never happen anyways so why are we aguring like little kids. Because I know when i get back from Iraq I will be doing a K24 w/ either a K20a or a2 head. and also stroking the block out also. Im not sure if my motor will be complete by the time i get back from Iraqdue to other issues that I have first of all.
