I just got a PWP/Ebony 6-speed Navi last week. Got 800 miles on it. It's fun. I am considering going with Intrinsic Performance Solutions cams. I can either build it N/A with cams, and other bolt on stuff (Intake, Header, Exhaust), or possibly go FI also with cams built with spec for turbo. I will have either setup tuned through Hondata.

I then have another dilemma in which I want to mod my 05 Elise . Maybe I'll turbocharge that with a K20A and build the TSX N/A.

All this will be happening within 1-2 months.

I'd go with N/A for your TSX & FI for your Elise.

You're not going to be able to use cams without programable engine management, and unfortunately, nobody makes a system that works for our car. If you want big power, the only solution at the moment is the Comptech supercharger.

Oh wow, that's what I wanted... a 05 Elise...

Stokeless_TSX

hmmmm 19 with either an 05 or 06 TSX and an 05 Elise???? Mommy and Daddy??? I don't think you could afford all that so i wanna see some pix please....

usurbrain

Keep in tune, I will post up all my mods. I guess I'll start with stock, then AEM intake and Hondata heatshield and see what kind of numbers the car can put down. Then go with the big stuff.

I wish mom and dad paid for these... that was 19 posts by the way, i'm much older than 19.

I have a 2006 TSX. Look carefully, the Elise is in the garage.



This picture gives you a hint to what I do for a living.

BTW, who's Viper?

Black_6spd

Does that Aspec TL belong to an AZ member? Funny how I see a picture of a lotus and I'm still drawn to the Acura.

edit: Just read the answer above.

usurbrain

That was my last roomate's viper. I actually drove it more than he did. Supercharged fun w/ R compound tires. The A-spec TL is Jerky's car.

Ooh...supercharged Viper...

I imagine that considering the regular Viper is a beast to handle, a supercharger must make it nearly unmanageable...

BlackAcTSX

Umm... I still only see red X's

usurbrain

Actually you get use to the power. I want more.... Thus modding the Elise is necessary. I ride a 03 RC-51 with 131 rwhp. Still not enough speed... I'm crazy...

Tsx536

^^ My car is no where near as fast as the ones you have, but I feel you on getting used to extra power. I've noticed that I'm getting used to the extra power with my SC. It use to make my heart beat fast whenever I would rev it up really high, but it doesn't seem to do that as often anymore.

So what mods are you planning for your Elise?
PixelHarmony had some an awesome thread with a Lotus with a K23. Check it out:

Pics don't work for me but I say do your research and build the TSX of F/I...turbo hopefully over SC

Stokeless_TSX

i swear when he first started this thread it said age 19 and thats one of the reasons it made it so hard to believe for me. And the pix dont work for me even when i take the url of the pix and put it in the address bar? oh well

Actually, it was someone misreading 19 posts as his age. I did the same thing when I first saw this thread but did a double-take and, sure enough, it was my misreading.

Stokeless_TSX

ahhh got ya well i still cant see any of the freakin pix. =(

usurbrain

Hey Stokeless_tsx,
Sorry about that, I don't know why you can't see the photos.... Here's to prove that I'm not BS. This is the link to one of my yahoo photo albums.
