hell, my car will be more deserving of the type-S badge than any other type-S out
there when I'm done.

It'll have probably $15,000-$20,000 in performance mods and another $10,000-$20,000
in appearance mods on it.... I think I can put any badge I want on it then...
Plus the interior and such will be customized to match the badge.

you may call it rice or whatever, I don't care. too bad they never made a type-S TSX
to start with, it would have saved me a few thousand at least...


Actually they did make a TypeS TSX. It's called Honda Accord TypeS

Yeah Hytech is like a never-ending story. I think most people end up giving up on the wait time.

I think the wait would be worth it though if you are after as much power as possible

Yeah, I'm aware of that.
But they never made a TSX that's a type-S.

and frankly that Accord type-S is kinda weak.
I'm looking to improve upon what they did in that one.
By a fair margin.

I've looked into Hytech, but man it seems like a headache on wait time and
certain fitment and stuff.

Having an '08 is going to make it harder.
Hondata doesn't have anything for me so I'll need to find another route.

I'm almost positive I'll end up with a supercharger, and I'm trying to formulate
some good solid plans now.

Maybe I need some more info or some more encouragement on HyTech...

have you called marcus at heeltoe about it already. since some people walked away from hytech after months of wait, you may be right there at the top of the list

no, not yet.

I suppose Marcus would be a good start to talk to.
I'd like to be more informed on the whole deal before I decide to go for it.

you probably already know this because you know how to SEARCH (unlike so many others) but there's a hytech thread in the bm section with more info

that thread leaves a lot of unanswered questions.

like reflash/working with an '08 AT.

like the time (over a year?...) for delivery.


like the fact nobody has ever done this to my knowledge....
especially on an '08.


seems to be too many maybes, and unknowns and such as I see it now.
for the price I'd need something far more concrete, reliable and such... you know?


not ruling it out though, definitely not.
