When Comptech re-opens their doors - Supercharger for $4000+labor. About 60 extra HP at the wheels and 30 to 35 lbs of extra torque at the wheels. You will be able to beat a TL with a 5AT and get better gas mileage.

On my wish list for 2009 or 2010, unless the all new TSX kicks some serious ass.

it is not worth to spend 4k + more just to get 260whp. you can get more power with 4k than that.

Hytech cost more than 4k to get to 260whp

header exhaust + hondata along is like $3200 and it produces about 210whp


stage3 setup is probably stand along custom turbo kit...
no it will not be faster than M3....cuz it'll be in the shop most of the time lol

S/C 260whp = 275-280 hp at crank (stock 06 5AT 185 whp)
S/C 195wtq = 205-210 tq at the crank (stock 06 5AT 151 wtq)

http://www.hondata.com/reflash_tsx_06.html (Hondata stock 06 5AT dyno numbers)

A lot of folks spend about the same about of money on rims/tires and/or stereo systems that doesn't help the 0-60 times like a S/C. We even spend $1,000-$2,500 for I/H/Cat/E for only 15-20 extra HP. $4000 for 275-280 hp sounds like a bargain.

Dude you keep saying stage 3.. and keep giving info but not the most important info.. what is the setup.. please learn to be simple and to the point.. no point in going in circles... I feel for your Professor/Teacher when you write a paper or something back in or in University..
