    PS. go check ur wiki for torque figure for both of these, and u'll know the things u said, is not valid
    Sorry boss, the base model compression ratio, head casting, intake manifold, basically everything apart from the block, crankshaft and other minor parts are different. The base model does not even have traditional VTEC with an additional 3rd lobe per cylinder on the camshaft. I couldn't tell you which would be quicker at lower RPM but over any decent distance the gearing, high RPM power and lighter mass of the Type R will make it pull away from a base model like it is standing still.

    Seems like the original poster doesn't really need the additional features of the Type R so just find a nice base model/luxury in your budget, and you can always K24 it down the track if you want decent performance.

    Oh sorry, I didn't read the whole circlejerk of a thread. Maybe use the quote feature to make it clear that you are quoting someone else?
