i think they make a supercharger kit but a nice turbo kit would be fkn badass on a rsx-s but be prepared to spend alot of money

Shouldn't cost much more than any other Honda. But From what I've seen even at less than 8 PSI some RSX's are putting down well over 300whp.

there are some kits that puts out 56% more power at 6psi... not too bad

i though superchargers where made for autos not manual

do you think it would be more than 3g a good one installed and all. do i have to change cams headers or anything? what all comes with it

other way around the supercharger is made for the 6speed type s and comptech has one coming for the 5 speed base but not the auto.

It'll probably a bit more than 4G's and you're got a looong way to go before you should even think about boosting your car unless you have deep pockets or another car.

no.

Hmm I think you should do some more research for even considering going the f/i route. I've known 3 people that had serious problems with their car. Ironically they all used the GReddy kit. You dont really have to touch the internals but it would be safer if you did. I guess it all depends on who you go to, and how much you know about your car. But I have yet seen a turbocharged rsx that is reliable. I'm not bashing on the rsx or anything, but there are some reliable turbocharged rsxs out there. If I were you I would check out some forums to learn more. Good Luck.

you shouldnt have to change your cams but instead of a header your going to need a turbo manifold, as for any turbo kit setup ive seen the best results from kits made piece by piece.... just a good rule of thumb your turbo kit is only as good as your engine and fuel manigment... your basicly getting for what you paid for so if you pay good money and u get it tuned you will get alot of hp gains... as simple as it gets

if you want to do it, start at www.cybernationmotorsports.com
im not saying buy their kit, but good place to see a great kit, learn about turboing a RSX on their forum...

They do make a pretty sweet kit though, complete for $3800 and it wil make 300+whp easily...
