I dont think they are out for the TSX, but out for the RSX-S with our k20 engine, so im sure Toda has one in the makes for a tsx. Im sure kurt_bradly knows all about it.

is the exhaust being converted into a single canister........just a question, by the way what would be the name refering to the swapping of the heads that u are doing( darkside) as opposed the the known"mini me" swap, also what does that put the compression at, i figure with the gains from the toda header, it should be a lot but our tsx already has a high compression and a diff intake manifold to make up for alot of the torque that i knon for the k24.....id be eager to here ur imput it sounds inspiring brotha keep the great work up!!!

Also consider that the dynos posted were for a TUNED RSX. Not your ordinary one. The breathing has been significantly opened up. K-PRO has been tweaked since then too.

I'm not following. So that's a highly modified RSX to begin with, so we can't tell for sure how much is because of the Toda header? Is there a dyno from before the Toda header install, at least?

Yes, $1200 is a lot for a header, however those of you coming from the 6th gen AV6 can vouch that the Comptech headers were the same price. So on the bottom line, $1200 doesn't really faze me. Toda's header is probably a very well-built product with very nice gains based on their reputation. With not much competition, they can justify that retail price.

I too would be curious to see a dyno of just the header.

yeah before I go out of my way and blow $1200.00 I would need to see a dyno.

The images that were posted were of dynos showing the gains of before and after the header itself. No other mods were done in between those lines. That was only on a K20 too. Imagine the torque differences for a K24.

Hey Kurt, how do you like the motor mounts? I'm comtemplating getting some, but do you know if any fit K24 blocks? How's the interior idle noise, that's the only thing I worry about.

I love them. Some will complain that the steering wheel will have too much feel in it when sitting at a light, but would you rather have wheel hop? I believe that any set of the ES mounts for a K-series will do fine. Not much is different about the 2 major mounts on the 2 cars. Then again, I also use the Mr. Alex torque dampener. That thing gives a little more vibration when at a stop. Like I said before about the wheel hop...
