Today I went with a friend to drop off his TSX at the dealer in Montclair for some service. On the way there, we stopped by a shop to check for prices on Tein SS Coilovers for his car. The funny thing was that the shop owner owned a modded TSX. He showed us some pictures and I noticed that he had an intercooler. He ended up telling us about how his car was at a shop getting tuned. He said he will have it next week. It was a really nice CG TSX. Fenders were widened. It had a Kenstyle kit. He also told us to come by next week because he would have his car by then. My friend and I are going by next week to see his setup. He said he has no clue what EMS the shop was using for his car. Lets just wait and see. I will provide you guys with details when I find out.

 

yes let us do cause I really want to get a turbo setup on my car and if I can find out by middle this summer I will order one and get it installed this winter for next show season.

 

Yeah. I was thinking about getting rid of my car but this is definitely making me think twice.

 

Please do. The one thing that everyone would want to know is what he is using for engine management as it seems that all the ones that people know about don't suffice.

 

I'm going with my digicam LOL. I'll make sure I get sufficient proof so that people don't call BS on this. The thing is that he seemed very hesitant about telling us anything. I asked him if he was on any of the forums and he said "I hate it because people ask you tons of questions." I forgot to mention that they expect to put out somewhere around 450HP after tuning. I dont know if that is with stock internals or not. I can't wait until next week.

 

Please take some spy shots of what he is using. He obviously doesn't know.

 

Muhahahahhaaah. Will do.

 

[QUOTE=SilverBullet04] I dont know if that is with stock internals or not.QUOTE]

No way. The amount of boost that would be needed for 450 WHP would crush the stock high compression 2.4 like a soda can.

Now that new 2.4(??) factory turbo engine Honda is gonna be putting in that new cute-ute and next gen TSX should be an awsome platform to build a high horsepower big-booster. Always wanted honda to build a turbo powerplant.

 

Where is the shop??

 

Hey I don't know the cross streets because I'm not familiar with that area. I'll give you more information next week.

 

maybe I can read and you already have but since I cant find them can you give us the city and state and the shop name please.

 

yea or ask what shop he is getting it tuned at. I want turbo even if I have to stop eating to afford it.

 

[QUOTE=Brandon24pdx]Do you have any links to articles or something regarding the next gen TSX motor?

 

Hopefully he meant around montclair, NJ. If so, what's the shop's name?? I'll even stop by today.

 

I totally forgot to mention the state and shop. I am located in California and the shop's name was Audio Vision if I remember it correctly. Don't worry guys. I will post the details on this forum as soon as I find out about it. Also, the people that built and are currently tuning the kit are none other then Turbonetics. Try not to launch a massive email attack on them until next week though.

 

Waiting for next week...................must launch email attack.......... thats how the emails are gonna go...muahahahaha

 

just because the shop is attempting this does not mean they will be sucessful, should be interesting to hear what happens with this.

 

hope its not a 05 AT lol, hondata can't even crack that thing!

 

Well if its a big company as in turbonetics they will come up with something. Even if they are using a custom one off hondata flash for that one car....Hondata really needs to start with the Kpro...this is getting ridiculous.

 

no i hope its on an 04 AT cause I want a turbo.

 

 

that would get me thinkin too...

 

Man, what sup with that?

 

yo silverbullet04.... we definetly gonna get some pix next week... man i cant wait either...

 

yea... man...

 

interesting...

 

Hopefully when this thing does come out, it'll be compatible for all model years. Should be sweet >=)

 

Montclair..as in montclair, nj?
If it is, i def wanna go check this out!

 

Damn another one...I really can't wait to see what hes done. Turboing is ? I've been throwing around in my head.

ABPTSX- silver said he lives in Cali...I really doubt the work is being done in montclair nj

 

no, montclair in cali

 

Wow...that's awesome!
I'm also curious about the engine management being used

 

It's a 6MT guys. 5AT owners shouldn't lose hope though. Maybe we can still try to use the same EMS?

 

so..pics and info yet??

I want TURBO!..........psh..

 

Next weekkkkkkk after Wednesday. I will have them up as soon as I get home. Don't worry.

 

That sounds good! Look forward to see pics with turbo kit.

 

bump...

 

yeah where are the pictures.

 

waiting....

 

still curious if they'll have to change out the piston heads to lower the compression and compensate for boost.

 

you mean cylinder heads?
they might change them to RSX-S heads to make more power, but you don't really need to worry all that much about the compression. Other turbo k series seem to be doing fine on it.
