Man gotta say, best turbo rsx review I've seen. I made exactly the same power with the same boost using cheap copies. Only difference is I made 380 lb ft of torque. Hats off to you.
As a 50-year car guy I've got a frame off restored 79 Camaro with a big block Oldsmobile I got a 350 Chevy in an Isuzu Amigo, mainly been an old-school muscle car guy GM guy . I just picked up an 06 RSX black on black leather bone stock. I cannot remember liking a car this much over the last two weeks of driving,. Except my Porsche 944 days.. this guy talks my language and I'm all about the exact same build,,, as soon as I get done with these 20 other projects I'm all in... I'd like to Xerox copy this..
Love it! I've got an '05 Type-S that I bought just over 5 years ago. Those that know what these cars are really appreciate them. I've had offers to buy and random people wanting to take pictures with me and the car. LOL. Mine is Premium White Pearl. I love the black on yours. I have done no where near the upgrades that you have. A buddy of mine said that mine is mostly "stockish." Another friend had a black one that was supercharged. He was pushing close to 400 hp, but not like yours for sure.
Super informative walk around was a pleasure to watch 2 times lol. I’m buying the vacuum activated e cutout just like yours on my nhbp 2006 Rsx Type s full peakboost turbo kit. I had a turbo 8th gen si and the engine bay is so much tighter to fit a kit in there. Please bring back a older Honda build eg,ek,dc2,or the sedans db7/8 or the eg sedan or ek sedan. Em2 ehhhh....
Nice! Got my first turbo car ever and it’s a turbo rsx making 403 and boost cutting without fuel return system 😔 currently having redline issues which i believe it just needs a return system and a retune.. still a really fun car. Just subscribed! Hope to see more videos of your rsx.
this is the exact build i want... but maybe with a little less power until i can afford to fix it. i hope rsx's don't get too expensive in the next few years
@@Unknownacc32 she's sold unfortunately. A guy flew from FL to buy it. Paid top dollar too, so I let it go. Currently have a whippled F150 for my toy. Lol... I'll be doing another honda build though if I can get my hands on a clean shell
Love the setup, Im trying to see when I can get one myself sometime. You mentioned ceramic coating? I am happy to pay you to ceramic coat one of the vehicles my relative has. Not sure if you are on east coast, but wouldnt mind travel.
This is an amazing rsx build brother. I’ve boosted my rsx on stock returnless fuel lines and made 406hp. I’m just curious what injectors you’ve used to achieve 470 and do you know how much duty cycle you had left pushing it there? Wish you still had this thing
This was on some dw1000s. High 80% duty cycle. Basically max duty and still being safe. You don't wanna run injectors past 90% if you can help it. Honestly 75% max is ideal. Always go bigger if u can.lol
@@calawaydp that’s awesome! I’m running the same injectors at 70 percent duty. I’m thinking about retuning next year and call it good. Thanks alot for replying so fast!
I've had 1.... loooong time ago. In 2004. Right when the mounts came out to swap a k20 in the chassis. It was on 10lbs and destroying everything it raced! Lol... it caught on fire 1 night... and burned to the ground on the side of the road b4 the fire department could get there. :(
So what engine should I buy if I purchase a Rsx ? I’m looking to purchase one & build it , I’ve seen some but the front end is really damaged , so I might need a new a bumper .. any suggestions? Or recommendations ?
So the rail was a off the shelf Ktuned. Oem fuel line. Theres adapters fittings to convert from stock hardline to AN. Thats what I did at the firewall. Then I added an in line aeromotive filter and ran AN to the rail.
I’m curious about your exhaust, I’ve heard exhausts with electric valves leak. I want my car the be loud, I don’t want to deal with cops, but I also don’t want it to leak. What’s your experience with it ?
How did you make almost 500whp on stock CR? I thought the k20a2 was limited to about 400whp on 93 and 11:1 CR. At least thats what i was told by my tuner lol
I'll always do my best to answer questions bud. And you can't put a definite number to your question. Theres alot that goes into it. Are you buying second hand stuff brand new,mix of both. What spectrum of quality of parts. You could do a build for $2000 or 3,4 times that. All depends on how much power your trying to make and how long you want stuff to last. You need to find a happy medium. Buy quality parts, ie: turbo mani,IC injectors. The rest you can get away with buying some cheaper stuff. Find a nice used precision or BW turbo and manifold. Thatll save you big $ right there
TBH, the budget kits for the K20 have come a long way... The Humble 500whp kit is like 2-3K and comes with really good shit. I upgraded with the Ball-Bearing 5858 Precision for an extra like $400 I think.. Made 400whp on 93 and 280tq(its a K24)..
@@calawaydp Badass man! I'm attempting my first K24/20 (still thinking about the Z3, already have it) Going boost either just 75 shot I have been but, I may just build it up for boost and take my time. I still have a lot research to do. I can do all my welding and fab work myself

I'm more so worried about the transmission. is yours built? at all
If the compression is good in every cylinder. Your fine. Do a leak down test
Před 3 lety
Do a K24 swap and sell the motor that is in it... JDM NYC sells K24A's with the RBB head for like $650 and $850 with shipping.. Its the best move youll ever do. The K24 is just a better motor. Its a more daily friendly motor with a better powerband and you still get decent revs.. (Mine revs to 7800 conservatively).. Theres more torque and its a better motor for boost as well with the added displacement and slightly lower compression. The K24 also has beefier rods. If you pull the K20 and send it off to the machine shop for refurb, you may spend $200-300 for the head and cylinders to get refreshed, but youll likely be able to get $1K for the motor afterward.
Using the Fx400 full face on mine.. Clutchmasters 12lb billet flywheel, with the Clutchmasters Hydraulic release bearing setup.. One of the best clutch setups I have ever used on a K series. Holds the power like a champ and it feels almost like a stock clutch. The engagement with the hydraulic release bearing is just phenomenal..

probably missed it if you talked about it in this video, but did you build the engine in any way? Or is it stock pistons, rods, etc. thanks!
Unopened longblock
Drop in an EPS. Get rid of the hydraulic power steering. It’ll help clean up the engine bay. And your ride hella clean. 👍🏻
I plan on doin the conversion
Question on your power steering line did you kept the sensor or could it be deleted? Thanks
I kept it
Love the RSX. But you need to build a delsol next.

@@calawaydp I know :) modded evo from a dig; all-motor. (Before the turbo kit) That's why I said you need to build one. Good times.
Yea, good times 4 sure. Out runnin that srt10
what size fitting did you use for the fuel damper
Looks nice,but also looks expensive!!
Nah
I just got a RSX as well. Bone stock virgin . I’m thinking of going turbo just wanted to know around how much is a simple setup to make 350hp?
Price will always greatly vary. But the cheapest decent quality kit id recommend is the cx racing kit
So what engine should I buy if I purchase a Rsx ? I’m looking to purchase one & build it , I’ve seen some but the front end is really damaged , so I might need a new a bumper .. any suggestions? Or recommendations ?
K20 or k24
Love this car🔥🤩, man could u help me out w exactly fuel setup on it? I would appreciate so much cuz im trying to buy a turbo kit
Was just a drop in DW65c. And some FID1000s
Calaway Detailing no I meant the -6an, fuel filter and fuel rail
So the rail was a off the shelf Ktuned. Oem fuel line. Theres adapters fittings to convert from stock hardline to AN. Thats what I did at the firewall. Then I added an in line aeromotive filter and ran AN to the rail.
Calaway Detailing thanks for the reply and no Regulator ? Ill try to found the fitting so i can convert it to -6an
Correct. No regulator bc its a returnless setup
how much did all this cost? btw keep making the videos the car looks absolutely stellar
Other video on this
What so hard to answer a question ? I get you want views but we want answer too lol
I’m curious about your exhaust, I’ve heard exhausts with electric valves leak. I want my car the be loud, I don’t want to deal with cops, but I also don’t want it to leak. What’s your experience with it ?
If its a nice high end valve. You'll be fine. Avoid the cheap stuff
How did you make almost 500whp on stock CR? I thought the k20a2 was limited to about 400whp on 93 and 11:1 CR. At least thats what i was told by my tuner lol

Negative...I haven't had any creep issues
Dope man. Your setup looks beautiful. Mines a mess right now lol
How was the fitment of the cx racing intercooler piping ?
We tweaked it some. But it's good overall
