Is that a turbo K24?

Looks like the engine of that one HKS turbocharged TSX that has been making the rounds on the site. I thought everyone said that it was for show only?

Dan Martin

I think turbo lag would be pretty bad with that setup considering the length of the tubing.

Also, the purple trim parts sap a lot of horespower unless you turn off the alternative lifestyle option.

whose car is this!?

Isn't the turbo sitting right by the top of the engine near the firewall?

Dan Martin

Yes but the intake manifold is in the front and it looks like the tube has to go to the front (presumably to an intercooler) and then routed up into the engine. The turbo will have to pressurize this length of pipe every time the driver shifts hence causing turbo lag.

whats good looking about that? a buncha nasty colors mismatched, i cant even tell whats gooda bout the engine other than the intake which is obvious

Dan Martin

how about that turbo Cman???

I agree about the colors BTW.

I don't think the turbo lag would be that bad since the turbo isn't too large. And I'm sure if not the same it'll be pretty close to the same setup as the RSX-S. And I haven't heard or seen any major lag problems yet!!!!

Anyhow. That's some crazy stuff.

that color scheme is something hideous

If everyone looks at the back of there engine compartment they will notice that there is a ton of room for a turbo. Honda was thinking about this one
