Turbocharge
Hey i seen many tsx with superchargers, but is it possible to put in turbocharge???
i know will have to spend alot and customize but is it worth doing it or is it just better of throwing in a rdx engine instead??

It is possible. But there is no engine management readily available to tune it. And throwing in the rdx engine won't work. The k23 utilizes shawd. It doesn't bolt right up to the other k transmission.

Someone already tried. Wasted a whole lot of money trying. Go check on HT.

The problem is not the turbo itself.

The problem is only the engine management. You can run an engine management system while sacrificing all your gauges.

As for the DSG system. Don't know about putting it on. But a Sadev or Xtrac sequential will work.

RDX has a K23 engine; TSX has a K24, and RSX/Accord Euro-R has a K20. So no, same sereis of engine but the internal and ALOT are different.

DSG is from Audi, ask Acura if they want to make a harness/adaptor/EM to make it work... lol

Integra/RSX are easily modify because of their volume (sales), and the target (people who buy this car usually mod the hell out of it); so, they have great after-market support. And K-Pro will handle all the engine management part. TSX is no luck for now.
