Turboed RSX-S

www.hondanews.com

HKS Turbocharged Acura RSX Type-S: The question: "Can the new Acura RSX be turbocharged and if so, how much power can be massaged out of the already potent 2.0-liter i-VTEC 4-cylinder?" The answer: a resounding Yes! HKS USA, a leader in providing high-performance turbo systems and other performance parts for automobile enthusiasts had developed a prototype turbocharger based on HKS' GT2835 model. With a target output of 300 horsepower (a 100 horsepower increase more than the Type-S), the HKS RSX is capable of near-supercar performance. In addition to the turbocharger, the car features an HKS Super Mega Flow intake and HKS' F-Con S engine management system. The ride height has been lowered with Sprint lowering springs in the front and back. The car rides on Racing Hart CP-035 R Wheels (18x7.5) and Proxes T1-S Toyo tires (P225/40ZR18). The body features an Acura Accessories rear deck lid spoiler and side sills, and a C-West Front Fascia. Inside, the car boasts HKS 60mm electronic boost and EGT meters, and an HKS Turbo Timer.

This guy's already built a drag RSX.

In stock form, the 200-horsepower Acura RSX Type-S runs the quarter-mile in 14.8 seconds at 95 mph. In race form, De Vera's 650+ horsepower RSX is expected to be a little faster. De Vera's RSX features a turbocharged, methanol-powered 2.0-liter i-VTEC 4-cylinder engine.

Whoa!!!!
