Since you can control duty cycle with K-Pro, you should be fine with 650cc injectors.

It's tough to say how much additional power you could make since I don't know of anyone who has K-Pro'ed a K24a2 with matching tranny (typically it's a K24 swap with K20 transmission). I've read of RSXs hitting about 300whp with the K24/K20 combo, so I'd guess anywhere between a 30-50whp gain over a stock S/C setup (assuming you added more boost as well). With the addition of water/meth, I'd hope a good tune via K-Pro could net me around 310-315whp .

Sure you can always make more power but you need to be able to do it safely. In Dayta's case yes I imagine he will be able to make more power with a better tune but more importantly he'll save his engine. He's still on the original tune with a HBP and using the water/meth as a octane booster to offset the chance of detonation. The K-Pro saves his engine and probably nets him more power too. Honestly if we could get an intercooler set up for his engine he could easily see 50whp with more boost and a good tune.

Comptech did make a couple of prototype coolers...They dropped the project I think cause of lack of cooling...



There is an option to cool the JR manifold. Just gotta make it fit on the TSX...

Well, it's good to know that if I ever have any problems with my setup, I have a good 'ole warranty from a knowledgeable technician who will fix my stuff free of charge .

Man you guys are thinking big numbers I was thinking more along the lines of Aftermarket intake RBC Mani Dope Header Dope Exhaust with a nice tune I'm pretty sure that would put anyone over 200whp which is good enough for me. Too bad its only for 04-06 I guess my 07 may never know the satisfaction.

^^ He has Turbo.

Hondata is a company. They have two products for the TSX. A reflash and K-Pro. A reflash is a one size, fits all, tune to the ECU. K-Pro is a fully user programmable engine management system.

So you can gain more power from an NA set up with k-pro then the plain ol re flash correct?
