sounds great, but by then there will likely be a S/C out for the TSX (other than comptech) and i dont think it will be nearly as expensive as this... not to mention the labor involed..you're looking at $5k+
i think i'll wait for the S/C route.. though i wouldn't mind having a hytech header/exhaust on top of a S/C.

The motor is Roger Foo's Grand Am TSX motor. It is a 2.4 TSX engine. The engine spec's for Grand An are 10.5 to 1 compression ratio, stock rods and pistons, no head porting, HyTech Grand Am kit which includes cams, springs, retainers, header and oil pan baffle. Fuel is Sunoco 98 octane Grand Am spec. It also uses a 60mm throttle body instead of the fly by wire one, and a Hondata K pro for tuning.
It is safe to say that our engine dyno data is very consistent with the Dynapak numbers. Doug from Hondata did the chassis dyno tuning so these are reliable numbers. You can aks him if in doubt.
The graphs are the engine dyno and the chassis dyno which compares a stock TSX to the Grand Am TSX by HyTech"

Trans really does not have much to do with anything other than the ability to tune. Hondata can't flash 05 AT TSXs, so these parts could not be tuned on this car.

StefsTSX, please take your CAI questions to a more appropriate thread, and leave this one for Hytech discussion. You can PM Heeltoe or another vendor if you're interested in competitive parts quotes.

They hate overlap, because the positive MAP will blow the charge out the open exhaust valve when both valves are open. With a supercharger, the only thing you want from a header is as little backpressure as possible, to accomodate the increased volume that the engine is pumping while under boost. All the other headers seem to accomplish this quite well. The exhaust looks really nice, and would probably help free up some power, but some people have already pointed out that it only works with the Hytech header (due to the longer primaries I would assume).
Not sure why camshafts wouldn't work with the AT as well. The engine and tuning are the same.

If you want to ask an unrelated question then you can a) search for a thread with the appropriate topic and ask your question there or, b) send a PM to the person who you want to ask.
In other cases, "mods" could very well be short for "modifications" (as in "what mods have you done to your TSX?").

Yes, thank you to all who clarified that, new members should know some of us are very entrenched in the shorthand speak around here.
The best way for you stefsTSX to get an answer would be to PM the vendor (who will be happy to help you) or search for other threads on the topic you are interested in and ask your questions there.
Now... Back to HyTech discussions, please.

true...if the whole package + labor gonna cost around 7k I don't know why people are get excited about it....
TL Type-S is about 37400 OTD fully loaded.....
Even though it's gonna have more power than TL-S but stock should always have less problem than modded vehicle.

It all boils down to personal tastes, not logic.....some people buy no-name dress shoes @ Payless Shoe source, still others buy Ecco's or Timberland, while others have to have Bally or equivelent, all work and serve the same purpose....if we were all logical, we all would drive Yugo's or something.

I am just merely point out that this option will most likely to be all talk and not many going to buy...are you going to buy it if it's 7k? If not then stop talking trash like money is a non-factor here.

7K is not a small amount, but for myself, if I have that extra $$$, I might do it. Consider N/A is more reliable than boost in a long run, with that much R&D invest into it, it's definity worth it. Consider the price is not that far off from the supercharger + labor, I don't see why you are bashing it?

I spent over $5000 on mods on my Integra after a few years of modding. Never once did I sit down and say, "Hmmm. Is spending $5000 worth it?"
Modding comes in phases. One day you decide to buy a header. A few months later, you buy cams. Before you know it, you have new pistons, rods, and a different head.
You really can't compare it with a stock car like the TL-S. Modding is adding your own personality and uniqueness to the car. Otherwise, you could just buy a used Camaro SS and smoke 99.99% of the cars out there.
While I agree that not too many are willing to do this mod, I don't think anyone ever suggested that it will be flying off the shelves. Hytech has always been for the hard-core.

but there are like 15 posts asking about wow when's this mod gonna come out and people talking about like they are gonna do it and stuff...
but when you think about it .....exhaust and header cost like 2500...the cam kit probably cost another 2500....and then there's reflash cost.
I don't think labor is gonna be 5k....but the package will be around like 6k....then you add up some labor.....if the labor is really gonna be 5k then seriously what's the point......
There are like what...5 people that did the supercharger.....if the labor gonna cost 5k for this mod expect less......

did you spend 7k all on power or like 2k on power...few on suspension...few on cosmetics.....
7k is probably a optimistic estimate anyway....and after that you'll need to upgrade brake another 3k....upgrade chasis if you plan to use that 260whp.....upgrade suspension so you can actually corner with fwd.....
you end up with a car that cost 42k with no cosmetic upgrade yet.....and some 47k stock 335 will still kick ur ass.....
might as well buy a new car

you need port polish that's like few hundred and the installation.
I'd say my 7k estimate is pretty optimistic...most likely gonna cost more
since the whole package might be selling for 7k already lol
i donno how u gonna install header and exhaust without lift....but whatever that's cheap labor anyway....the main one is camkit
