You need engine management, which is currently only readily available via Hondata Reflash, and is not for turbo.

Isn't it a matter of removing the DBW?

And moved to Parts & Perf

people have used custom turbo setups, so you could probably take the RSX one and customize it a bit to make sure it fits. the TSX engine bay is bigger than the RSX one, so there's a decent change it fits... getting it to work right is another story

Yes, it's true, but just because it fits doesn't mean it will work. Like someone else said, the parts are there, ready to bolt on, but the problem is that no engine management is available to adjust the fuel map. If you use a different ECU, you will lose a lot of the functionality built into the stock ECU. If you remove DBW, you'll need a different ECU.

Can it be done, sure. Is it worth it at this point, probably not.
