Going Custom Turbo!
If no turbo kit comes out for our TSX this year by July, im going custome! I believe i have the engine management that works with DBW now..so everything else should be cake.. I'll try to get enough info on what hardware they used for the DAZZ TSX like intercooler and size of the turbo and things like, then take it from there. Im trying to work with atleast 275WHP on stock internals.. There is this place near me called "TurboTrixRacing" ..they were in sport compact car i believe..or maybe another tuner mag..but they made the fastest EVO on the East Coast.. i dont know if you guys remember that issue? They usually deal with alot of EVO's/Eclipse GT's and GTS's/Tilons..saw a few Supra's and WRX's.. So if nothing is here then thats the route im taking!..

Did you know that Comptech just came out with this SC kit for your car? I also was dreaming of Turbo for my TSX, but I bought an AT TSX because it also has to be a daily driver and I live in the NYC metro area. I wasn't ready to give up AT since I spend so much time in Bumper to bumper traffic. I don't think there are a lot of AT turbo cars out there since Chrysler in the 80's carslike the LeBaron TC. Aftermarket tuners probably won't develop a turbo kit for cars with AT either because there is no demand for it. Serious tuner cars will have Manual transmissions.

Actually I'm not so sure about that anymore. I recalled reading it somewhere a little while ago but can't track down the source now. I'll let you know if I can but for now just forget I said that. :o
Edit: There is still a question of how well it will run our instrument cluster, VSA, climate control, etc. Also whether or not it will come with basic maps to get up and running or not. If you can find any of this out that would rule.

I just got off the phone with Hyddra EMS and it's not OBD2 compliant. They suggest reconnecting the factory ECU for emission inspection, but how do you run a FI setup, especially with larger injectors with the factory ECU? The car will probably trigger a CEL in minutes.

Is the New Hydra Nemesis 2.1 OBD2 compliant...Would this system pass inspection? Thanks for all and any help.
Sorry they are not OBD2 compliant, that is why they are designed as PNP so you can always go back to factory ecu for smog.
But if i didnt pass inspection at motor vehicles, i'll just go to a private inspection station..someone will pass me

In Wa, there is no smog test - tailpipe sniffer for post 1996 cars (OBD2). Instead, they connect a tester to the DTC port from under the driver dash to retrieve codes.

The other question is, will the gauges and everything else still work? I'm assuming so, if they make and sell this for the TSX, but I would still want to be sure.
