Other Acura's that share the RDX engine...

Curious as to what other Honda/Acura vehicles share this 2013 RDX power plant....and what, if any, alterations may be present in the RDX variant. It seems to be a quite trust mill.....

Having previously owned both generations of MDXs, this motor seems quieter, and as peppy as my 300 hp '07. (Wonderful what 700 or so less Lbs can do for performance)

The Odyssey, Pilot and 2008-2012 Accord all used the 3.5L V6 with cylinder deactivation. All vary just a bit in regards to a few hp/torque due to different programming and intake/exhaust setups, but in a minor way.
