Well 280hp with a shitty tune, I'm wondering what I can get with a good tune. Maybe I need to ship my car to Hondata or Vit location. Trying to scratch this itch I have....

thanks ken. can i know how long it take for them to finish the job ? like if i get the parts would i be able to get the upgrade done in one day ? because i need it for work . and how much psi are you running with those now ? my stock im hitting 14psi at the moment and maybe i need turbo upgrade after i got those 600cc injectors/boost gaude done this friday.
you have flash pro? if not your magically running more boost then everyone else.

need to ship it out there and get doug and vit to sign off on it that way there is no more shenanigans. maybe hondata is worried about the backyard enthusiast like myself blowing up his car because we might not understand every facet of flash pro. I know I don't know it like vit does (but I do know it better then some shops) but I've managed to get some decent numbers and it drives well for the most part when I run a proven tune and I'm not exceeding the current limits.
I guess what I'm saying is I would rather have the option to have more adjustment then a forced baby sitter. I've called around read some books and done my homework to get where I am. and ill do it again once we get new parameters to work in.
what are your thoughts ken?
jeez just realized that was long winded.

Well heck, let me get it back together and we'll see what I can do about shipping it out there.
I know we have some guys out there in Oregon, are you guys willing to help?

Most of them will be having around 300 whp on the same dyno where Ken has 280. The difference is in the IAT. Its rarely coming out of +45C on +30C day. The difference between TMIC and a2w ic is 25-35C which is huge. This allows you to have more aggressive tune. Along with what Ken already has this setup will bring him to 300-315 whp easily.
There is also another build in Russia that has Garrett turbo swap, a2w ic and some other goodies. Around 330 whp.
Thats what you need in order to get ~13s quarter.

Nope, the setup you mentioned is a 400+ whp thing. That monster cannot start to move without spinning all 4 wheels.
Thats why I laughed on the "its gonna be first ever FMIC setup" )))

It would be nice to get a big named turbo shop like (Full-race, Greddy, PRL, etc) to get one of our CUV's in and build us a turbo kit. I can only wish....

At 330whp, given a proper launch a high 12 should be doable.
Completely different cars, but some food for thought. The Macan turbo, weighs roughly 300lbs more than the RDX and dyno's at circa 330whp. They have been running high 12's at 106-107
Biggest advantage the Macan has besides everything else is the PDK and launch mode. If we can get a stall, I could see good ET modded RDX's and broken axles...

Then the horror stories of blown turbos for the CLA45 (Powertrain is Identical) and the issues the Macan platform is having made we wait.
Figured, I found this RDX for 40K less, can have fun with it while they work out the kinks on the other platforms.
The Macan and the GLA are nothing short of spectacular. One of those two will be the RDX's replacement.

I came really close to buying either a Macan S, or GLA45.

Also, I am absolutely in love with the way the Macan looks.
After driving it, I am sold. I test drove one with the Sport Chrono pack, and PTV rearend(Much like SH-AWD). Just everything about it is amazing, the ride/handling, steering feel, power, interior, etc. It is the first car in a long time to surpass all my expectations, that was just the S!
Don't get me wrong, the 1st Gen RDX is an awesome SUV, and for the money it simply cannot be beat.

While we may get near the performance of a stock Macan S. I think the GLA45 and Macan Turbo are a very tall order with the RDX's limited after market.

The Macan is a nice car. But, I live this life..... Still got the EM1 in the garage from my teenage years... Maybe I need to let go, but HONda for life!!!

ken if you have a shitty tune why not just do the etune from vit? I spent a entire night reading reviews from the 8th gen guys and it really sold me on his skillz. people where sitting in front of there pc's clicking refresh waiting for their newest calibration, he's that good hahha. I still have not heard back from matt on the time that they would need the truck for. Maybe they got cold feet? Im sure if plenty of us rdx owners pushed them.. they would figure it out for us. The russian's love the rdx's for some reason.. alot of videos of them. The gt28 would run friggin sweet on the k23 and want to see videos of that guys. Gt28 or a gt30. I was thinking of running a Water to Air intercooler myself and getting away from the air to air. I am also in the process of trying to bend up a heatshield to protect the intake manifold from all the heat from the radiator. once those fans kick on.. talk about a heat soaked intake manifold. Next issue.. anyone run a colder thermostat? I dont like these 190's so maybe a 170F one? Could we use any k-series one?

I don't know what my car is capable of, but I made 280hp a not so good tune. But now I am with Vitviper, so we will see what happens next.

im not sure we are getting heat soak from the intercooler I had 111 degree intake temps from mine the other day. the ambient temp was 32 degrees. and it was snowing... the intake gets hot as hell from the radiator, A/C condenser, and various other heat exchangers. I'll look into getting a Water to Air intercooler.
