Idk I just looked at a side by side review of both gen touring spec cars where the 2022 civic was a car behind barely slower side by side but considering it has changed compression and 10ish More hp the weight or gearbox tune has to be different.
Add to that these factors:
1) In Pakistan we are using same old engine(no bump in power).
2) New gen rs stock runs 3psi less boost to be safe with local fuel.(as per k tuner 12psi vs 15psi on old rs and 16.5psi peak in other markets).
3) int market civic xi got 10.3 vs 10.6 (lower comp) and made 20ft/lb extra torque and 6hp peaking 500rpm lower and still lost to x gen.
4) it's only a guestimate but pkdm cars should be making close to 160hp and lower torque too.
It means that it'll be very close to old rs but it'll no longer be leagues faster and since oriel still has gobs of torque they should not feel as different as we expect.
