A S/C 6MT TSX should run around mid to low 14's, hypothetically.
The only magazine test of a S/C TSX was done by Sport Compact Car.
But the test car they recieved wasn't even tuned by Hondata yet, thus they ran the 1/4 mi with a base tuned car. They reported a time of low 15's in the 1/4 mi with the untuned S/C TSX.

i';m sorry but that is dirt slow for a supercharged car. Makes me wonder why members shell out the extra $$ for a SLIGHTLY quicker car. oh wells, TSX is just for cruising and looking pimp imo.

A reflashed TSX MT with intake and header will run very low 15sec. (search around and you'll see people posted times slips). I anticipate that one with a S/C would do mid 14sec at least.

I think the Honda Accord doesn't run a DBW setup and that is the throttle body they used for the DAZZ setup? (correct if I'm wrong please)

wellif reflashed TSX's are runnin low 15's then 14.5 isnt a huge gain in my book. I will just wait for HONDATA to come out with a Kpro. And go turbo. A ball bearing turbo that is size comparable to a T3/T4 would run perfect in our car. Boost should hit right around 3500 to 4k and take it the rest of the way up. With alot more output than the SC. That just my opinion but I feel there is too much going into getting a SC. Turbos are much more efficient in my eyes.

yea...putting down 250WHP would definitely get you to low 14's.. with only Reflash and Intake i managed to run 14.9, so its very possiable! well it should be!

And the key here is "driven competently"
