just watching without looking at the numbers it runs really nice and smooth thats a special motor.

[@nate755]

Sounds really good 🔥🔥

[@improbablesafari1491]

Thinking about getting the JDM Honda Tourer wagon version of this car - and those are about the numbers I’m looking for. Thanks for the video - good info!

[@bighomieJ5X]

Sounds superb 👌

[@bvward]

Nick, would love to see a cam upgrade & test...

[@BulliKid]

I approve this video

[@Tanner_Teves]

I used to own a CU2 before my G8. I did a K&N intake, catless downpipe, 2.5” catback, and a remote tune. Never got it dyno’d but I assume it was probably 205/210whp lol. Having 220whp in that car with a 6 speed manual would have been a blast, I would def love to see what improvement it will have with upgraded cams

[@DUCE20K]

Is this automatic build or stick

[@IDGAF56852]

@@DUCE20Kit’s a manual. I own a 2011 accord euro cu2 luxury with a modified 6 speed manual LSD. These k-24z3 engines don’t have vtec on the exhaust only the intake cam. I’m getting drag cartel cams for my engine and doing a heap of external mods soon.

[@Diesel_vtec_garage]

That’s surprising power … would love to see cam swap comparison ,

[@Benjimade]

Those good numbers

[@chrisb15679]

My tsx wagon put down similar numbers def feels better than stock.👍

[@christianalmonte477]

i cant wait to tune my at cu2 XD

[@erindeveyra26]

Hey nick with this set up in comparison to the k20z3 head on the 9th gen you tuned before, was head swap feel like a drastic change for you?

[@georgep.692]

I'd be interested to see how the torque curve here compares to my CU2. I have a similar setup with 3.5in intake pulling from fender area, J35A8 TB, RDX 410s, the skunk2 downpipe but to the stock catback, and retaining the stock manifold with some porting and polishing to the aluminum injector base. It's good to see the 2nd Gen TSX get some love.

[@chrisb15679]

Stock r40 manifold def feels strongest down low imo, I have an rsp intake manifold on my 2g and it feels good but not as strong down low but the midrange and top end is night and day and make up for it. I ported a stock injector base and tb for My Brothers 2g tsx, we installed them along with a modded stock intake box. Even Untuned power kicks in down low and strong but then falls on it's face. It def gets moving but runs out of steam fast. R40 intake manifold is def designed for low and midrange power

[@prospectgarage5505]

Have any instructions to porting the injector base? I’m thinking about modding mine a bit and never heard of this

[@georgep.692]

I just used a dremel tool and smoothed everything down until the casting marks were gone. Should be smooth to the touch when done.

[@emberzz6939]

I wanted to get a new exhaust and was curious to how the 1 exhaust works because they come with 2 am I just dumb and am not thinking ab this right?

[@loganstrid8724]

Should i use ktuner v2 or hondata?

[@lindonk20]

Mr nick what injector dead times did you use for that rdx injectors?

[@delaghezzy]

Hey I have a question what ECU are you using ?

[@marcosaruca5283]

Whos offering cams for the v3 im intrested

[@dantrotta32]

Hi Nick where are located these days.

[@anthonytalavera7249]

Were those brembos a bolt on?

[@yannixenos2314]

💯👍

[@watchere]

i have one of these as a DD, now im tempted to ruin it and do all these bolt ons and exhaust!

[@nathanwilliams6449]

Same, I was expecting around 205-210whp but now that I’ve seen this it might be worth it

[@marlonbaird6070]

Supercharge it u won't regret it mate trust me

[@nathanwilliams6449]

@@marlonbaird6070 i would but its hard to find a kit, most have been discontinued

[@migueldj4950]

How much does a tune like this cost ?

[@TheJanz3n]

I know the rbc loses power down low but what's the average gain with the rbc on the k24z7?

[@sjhudon386]

10hp?

[@sjhudon386]

Probably a lot more with cams

[@pigvonrow1215]

Why does the k24z3 in the tsx have flat torque from vtec engagement untill 6000 rpms but all the k24z7s have the spike and then drop of torque once vtec is engaged than another spike?

[@marcosaruca5283]

Its wierd because vtec is only on the intake side of the z3

[@itscam5591]

Owners @ ?

[@MrEgshane]

Cant stop seeing the front wheel move around under load. Think that car needs bushings

[@ishaqhalimi5296]

Day 2 of trying to get noticed by nick for a dyno e tune

[@RAYZGM]

i miss my cu2 but its like a fat ex girlfriend.

[@marlonbaird6070]

They brilliant cars with a lot to offer even though performance isn't one of them but supercharging it fixes all of that

[@ishaqhalimi5296]

Hey I need a etune, idk how to contact you @tuningbynick
