Just bought my '07 RDX last week as a new daily driver. Love it so far and while the performance is certainly adequate, my gut tells me I'm going to get bored with the stock engine shortly.
I've noticed everyone raves about the Hondata reflash and I'm familiar with the basic bolt on mods as I've been modifying cars for over 20 years so my question is this...has anyone researched a larger turbo on the RDX? From what I read, the factory ECU doesn't like alot of mods, but has it been done or at least considered by anyone?

 

no RDX has an aftermarket turbo. There is no tuning solution.

 

Big Hatch, thanks for the heads up. What kind of performance have you seen from the bolt ons and reflash? Also, I'll probably do 20x9 on the wheels as well. How's the ride compared to stock setup?

 

Here's a link has much info : https://acurazine.com/forums/1g-rdx-performance-parts-modifications-162/what-you-can-do-your-rdx-engine-upgrade-master-list-887236/

I did Combo #1 with OZ Canyon ST 20" wheels. Wheels are much lighter than stock.

I truly like the gain performance from CP-E Intake and Hondata ReFlash. Since I'm in El Paso with high winds and Desert sand I did get the Filter Screen.

My ETS Intercooler should be on this week. Only upgrade I have yet to do is ATLP Exhaust and Crank pulley.

Also ordered the Eibach lowering springs.

 

I've read that thread...tons of useful info and thanks. I'm probably going to go with Vossen CV3 20x9 and Eibach springs for now. I don't see the RDX as a car I can get tons of power out of so I may just stick to cosmetic upgrades at this point. It's a work car for me but I've got to admit, the commute is pretty fun these days!
