HKS turbo kit

Some of you may know I've been in contact with HKS to develop and/or sell me the turbo kit that was on the DAZZ car (and wholehyper's (?) car I think I saw with one?). It's been about 4 months now, and all I keep getting from them is "I'm sorry sir, but this kit is a prototype only at this time, and is not in plans for production."

Well, the car is no longer a DAZZ car, I saw it yesterday at a benefit car show I went to. I don't know how many of you have seen some semi-close ups of the setup so I thought I would post them here. Outlook is very dim on this being mass released any time soon. 378 whp, F-con.

This was at the Toys for Tots benefit car show in City of Industry, CA.

I first saw this car last December at JGTC in Fontana. It was a DAZZ car then but it looks like DAZZ has pulled their sponsorship of it in the past few months.

it was on the DAZZ car last year, and i believe wholehyper has it on his car from the meet pics i saw. HKS won't even give me a price on it, they said they won't even make another one if i asked them and paid them to.

there is the 04-05 difference issue as well, same as hondata.

the figure I got from HKS was $25,000... the cost of the kit R&D.

Originally I believe it was supposed to be $7,999 MSRP though.

Those pictures are not of my car. I don't have an HKS turbo kit on my car or any other turbo for that matter. The turbo kit on the TSX in the pics is not an HKS set up, it is a custom fab. set up the owner of the car put together. The HKS badge may represent other mods. on his car. I do have a NHB tsx with the OG Kenstyle kit on it, I guess that is where the confusion between mine and his came in.

My 100% apologies for this.

I first saw these pics on another board and was told it was your car, which I believed because of the appearance similarities.

All Good man, I am not mad at all. I just wanted to clear things up. I didn't want to take credit for having a turbo kit on my car when i did not. Plus I met the owner of the car at the Pasadena meet, and he was madd cool so I want him to get his recognition for being one of the few with a turbo kit on the TSX.
