I dont know if im all that impressed though. I was more impressed with seeing the supercharged TSX make 318whp.. Im guessing he's still tuning to make more power but those numbers arent wowing me. He has to make more than a supercharger in my eyes to atleast wow me. Nice numbers but not impressive.

Once he ups the boost (with a stronger drivetrain), he'll be over 300whp and 300wtq, whereas supercharged TSX's have yet to top 250wtq.

Any way you cut it, w00ted's car is a beast, and will only get more beastly...

Correct me if I'm wrong but with nearly 300lb of torque, wouldn't that make the car jump off the line faster than the sc'ed tsx? HP is good but that's not the only numbers that makes a car fast. Those numbers are almost comparable to the Evo X's

The blow off valve sounds good.. haha.. all blow off valves sound good! I know he's still tuning but like i said.. seeing that Hondata's TSX made 333whp, 290whp isnt as impressive. But those torque numbers are really nice i must say. How do you start a turbo build on a stock clutch?.. Just made tuning that more defficult. And still no post here on the site..

Numbers aren't that great because he's only running 8psi and as said before the tune's probably not that great. But the car is still amazing for sure...mad props. I've owned a turbo car and the tune made all the difference. Although personally I think going over 300 hp or tq is pointless on fwd. I'd rather buy a 350z and twin turbo!

Dude respect the work. Guy easily just dropped 9k + to advance this community. Where's your turbo TSX? STFU . Also he didn't post on this forum cause club tsx is more active. This forum is full of a bunch of lurkers.

First off.. i respect the point he's turbo'd. He's not advancing the community because he's not making a kit for us! Its a custom kit! He's not helping me at all.. or you for that matter.. He's not even the first to actually do it. So why play bodyguard? And im a member on club tsx as well and its not more active than acurazine.. Alot of guys here actually know shit! The reason why i dont even go on club tsx anymore. 9K and only making 290whp?.. Maybe you need to STFU . and your "lurker" ^^ +1 up yours!

Im still waiting to see better numbers.. i know its capable of it. And like i said.. those torque numbers are good.. Maybe since its "custom", I thought I'd see something closer to 350whp.. atleast!

Wow.. i just read the post over at the other website.. nearly $10 grand (estimate) and only making 296whp?.. Robbery! No internal work either.. wow thats pricey. Thats why i say.. not impressed. Get the clutch installed and lets see some real numbers!

Lolz. I bet those guys who "know shit!" would be absolutely confused if they visited an Audi or VW forum. I love the sigs on this site in comparison to those forums... "Sweet mugen gas cap!! painted engine cover! custom plate with neons!!! modified nav-system!" This is for most signatures except for few educated posters. I'm not saying that I'm more knowledgeable than you, I probably am not at all... but half the people on this forum probably do not even know how the internal components of an engine work.

Well the guy that came here and made that comment was from tsx club. He was just an example of my statement. Alot of the guys that are members here are members over there as well. Your right about your last statement because alot of the guys here dont know anything about internal components but those are not the guys i tend to get info/help from, so they really dont matter. Any updates though?

This ought to be interesting when finished. Sounds nice and looks good but that price is pretty heavy duty! Thanks for doing this man, as a recent college grad I don't have the funds yet to take on a project of this magnitude but you def are pushing closer to someone developing a kit for us all. Good luck and can't wait for update.

i think he was selling his kit over there in the classifieds, so he might've parted it out.

fyi, bigben, who's also a member on here, has a full turbo setup going. he posted dynos on tsx club.

If I visited an Audi or VW forum, I'd probably spend most of my time wondering about the guys who put a 205 series tire on a 10" wide wheel and I'd be too busy to read any signatures...

Nice build, I was going to say you need to change that manifold to the side mount, flows A LOT better. I cant wait to see the gains with the new manifold alone.

You might want to pull out the right side fog like... looks like crap with one fog...

Wish turbo kits were available for our cars. What is the holdup that makes 'em difficult to install? Is it the fact that the car uses a MAP sensor instead of a MAF?

I feel like Honda used some older tech in these cars.
