I have a 92 Acura Integra with an intake, short shifter, MSD, and a pretty hollow exhaust (basically not much down to the car) and I pull a 15.6 roasting the hell out of crappy tires. It'll do better as soon as I get some better tires and lauch a little better. Can someone explain this to me?
BTW The Acura RSX-->

RSXs are running high 14 to 15 flats. If you read the article you see that it was over 110 degrees outside and very humid. Hondas are very temp sensitive

The $600 goal is a bit closer, but it could still be done. 87-92 (factory) Vtec anything = 87-92 Turbo2, 93+ (factory) Vtec anything = 93+ RX7 TT
