started my tsx turbo last week... parts that are all over our shop floor:

- universal intercooler
- universal 2.5¨aluminium piping
- HKS SSQV BOV
- Tial 38mm wastegate
- RC 750cc injectors
- JVT K serie top mount cast manifold
- autometer boost gauge and oil pressure gauge
- Hondata dual ECU setup with harness and kpro
- full-race T04E Turbo .50 A/R Compressor, .63A/R Turbine
- 3¨ custom downpipe with v-band made by us...
- hummm some others misc parts....

ok I already installed intercooler, made my custom charge pipe, relocated my battery in the trunk, started the downpipe, made a little aluminium plate to install the gauge under the radio...


I will update pics as soon as I have something else to show...

Little teaser to start...

 

nice....can't wait to see the finished job....

 

excellent.
about time I see someone doing this.

 

as you can see there was no more space for the fog light so I will only install the black cover around the light but def no space for the lense...

 

really nice, can't wait to see it finished

 

i'd gladly ditch fogs for a functioning turbo. haha.

 

Good job ! I am really looking forward to see this car in action

 

Very nice man! Definitely keep us posted as you continue to make progress. Have you picked up the K-Pro yet?

 

got a 03 PRB kpro, my stock TSX ecu, immobilizer and key shipped to hondata... they have it right now to convert the system to dual ecu... I will receive it by friday with the harness ready to plug and play...

 

Nice man hope to see some vids and more pictures !

 

Very nice man....Have fun with it! Are you tuning it or do you have someone that will be doing the tuning?

Either way, best of luck on your project man. I'm really looking forward to seeing the results.

 

thx, I work at my shop, so im doing everything by myself...

we also own a Mustang dyno so I will tune it too...

Ill keep you all update!

 

by the way ive been looking and looking... no one did this before or what? the only one I saw is the dazz TSX, and another one that was most a car show tsx...?

 

true.
nobody has really done this before.
not the right way anyway, you are the first.

 

Looks great! (aside from the one-eye fog light, and the burnt out DRL/high-beam bulb).

Turbo > lighting. Hehehe.

 

lol I have no burnt light... its the reflextion of the flash of the camera... the battery wasnt in the car when I took the shot...

 

LOL optical illusion then.

 

oh man how did i miss this thread?! best of luck with the build

 

Good luck!

 

Nice, turbo TSX-beast in the making

 

Its a manual or auto tsx?

 

I'm sure it must be nice to have access to a dyno. Good luck with the build.

 

Nice man, any head work done?

 

i wanna see how good the power is put down, and if it is worth turboing the tsx. best of luck, this might just convince me to go turbo...

 

w00ted - any plans for a LSD? I don't see that listed in your planned mods and as DAYTA on this forum has recently shown, that makes a huge difference in drivability of a highly powered FWD vehicle such as our TSX.

 

Could a replacement to the '06 bumper and have the fogs or it will still be in the way? With this turbo kit n intercooler, u might be better off getting a Mugen bumper or the Spoon one (both without fogs) but plenty of lower air cool....

 

guess what did I received today??

 

6mt

 

of course Im thinking about it... but the money is getting low since we are doing a turbo kit for my tsx and also a turbo kit for our shop car s2k... I guess if I can get a hand on a deal...

 

none... Ill go bone stock for this year....

 

Turbo'll be COOL..

but how's the... cost on it??

know about roughly how much to get it done?

 

the reason I dont update pics is not that im not working... the TSX is at the body shop for a little beauty.... sneak peak of what we are doing:

 

i wanna see the above mounted on the tsx!

 

+1

 

Good luck bro!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!

vrrroooommm vrrrooommmm party starter~

 

+2

 

ok guys the turbo setup will be bolt in by the end of the week.... ill update picssssssss soon...

 

Gah. A little too late. Maybe Not. Well, first off, great work on the project. The JVT cast manifold is a decently made item (I know first hand as I used to work for JVT). I know this isn't the first turbo TSX, but it's still a lot of work, and I commend you guys for that. But why the HKS SSQV BOV? Can you say flutter city?

 

good luck; cant wait to see it done!

 

what`s wrong with the hks bov? I had that bov on my old gt40r civic setup and liked the sound... so I kept it for this turbo kit...
