    You want a 12 second RSX? there's alot of research you have to do in order to see 12's man NA...

    Weight reduction, high compressed and fully build, and tuned. and drivers skill...so think about weigh out ur options, but ur like me, stubbon n/a obbesser.

    modified for 12s NA on a rsx

    Cold Air Intake
    Toda Race Header
    Hondata K-Pro
    IPS k2 Camshafts with eibach valvesprings
    3" straight through exhaust system
    Integra Type R Intake Manifold, or the RBC (accord euro R) intake manifold
    slicks
    a FULL dyno tune
    CF hood
    racing seats
    removed spare and sub

    if that doesnt work
    get ITBs (individual throttle bodies) and a new dyno tune and you should do it if you can drive
