Question about Type "R"s

I am curious....how does a Integra late-model Type R match up against a 2G Eclipse Nonturbo? The reason why I ask is that I had a yellow one in Houston messing with me one saturday night, girl driving, guy in passenger seat, and we were running from a rolling start and I had no probs walking him. Was it a "badged" type R or a real one? Legit question, I think. Especially since I am not THAT modded yet. Heck I dont even have exhaust! Any info or specifications are greatly appreciated! TIA!
