Sorry guy, the wrx will still outlaunch the sc beacuse of its AWD setup.
Oh yeah, you talk about modding the sc a bit to hang with the WRX? Ummm.... I hope he didnt do ANYTHING to his WRX, because if so, bye bye.
I have a brother that owns a 2002 model, with exhaust, boost controller, intake system, piggy back fuel management system, and with no tuning, he ran a 13.20. He plans on getting it tuned, as soon as he can find a dyno that will accomodate.
These cars are fast, and bulletproof, for now it seems. My bros car is launched at 6000 rpm off the line and pulls perfect 60' times and very consistantly.
And by driving this WRX, you can feel it has potential to go much faster.
As for integra type r's...... well they will beat you around a autocross track on turns, with sillular drivers, but in a straight line, they will be neck and neck.
