You so crazy!
It was moving good till 100mph, then slowed down, then was out of breath at 115.
A 6 speed DSG would be awesome.

0-60 looks to be around high 5s which is amazing for such a heavy CUV. IMO Acura should have come out with a Type-S RDX. It should have come with a true dual exhaust, better intake, Hondata like ECU tune, bigger brakes and a lowering kit. They should have done it like they did the TL-S and made it come fully loaded from the factory and Charge about 39000 for it.

Nice video - after the down and mid pipe; you are going to want more power like me.

Hopefully someone comes up with a tune for our ECU so we can get a bigger turbo along with higher CC fuel injectors.

I am getting a code P0234 - Turbocharger/Supercharger 'A' Overboost Condition
This is only when I am in S mode and shift gear without letting go of the gas for each gear change.

It's a great run. However, I know this will be an unpopular post, but...

If you want to run your vehicle at these kinds of speeds you need to take it to a track. Driving your car at 100+ mph on a public road (and at night with reduced visibility) is irresponsible and reckless. You are putting other people in danger.
While speeding at 100mph, just stopping that RDX will take more than the length of a football field, under ideal conditions.

Not sure - I would think so since the check engine code comes up.

When you are making the video - are you shifting while your foot is still on the gas pedal? (VSA on or off?)

Code comes up when I stomp on the gas and continue to do so while change from first to second.

I ease off on the gas pedal now when shifting and the no code pop's up.

I will try to make a video but it is difficult to hold my phone to record while driving.

Wish I had a gopro2 lol.

Not sure - 5.5 - 6?

I just made a video and will try to post it up later tonight. (Not too clear)
When shifting like how you mention - I got the code popping up again.

(Maybe it is fuel cut that I am experiencing)
Any experts want to chime in this?

First thru third gear pulls pretty hard.
A little difficult to switch gears while recording.

(Had to make sure to change gear at the right time)

I think it would go a little faster if I didn't have the front bull , running boards and the rear towing hitch.

But we really need a piggyback system to be able to tune the car.

I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that, as a mature driver responsible for your passenger, you recorded this video on a closed track and not on a public road. Because that would not be smart.
