Edit....It was an 06 Civic Si that I raced. Not an RSX, which they are pretty close anyway though..

rsx-s is 210 hp, only about 10hp diff, but it helps, I would say around quarter mile 90mph he was about 1/2 car length in front of me. not to bad

We have trapped 90+ in the 1/4 when we where just exhaust equipped as well.

its not hard to beat one if the person doesn't know how to drive it
i had a friend that just came from the track and hit 14.4 (don't remember trap) with just an intake (05 type-s)
so i guess he can drive
