KraftWerks Supercharged Acura TSX Dyno Tune

[@That_Stinger_GT5]

Almost 10 years old and still looks better than the new acura integra, it's a beautiful car and makes me miss it 😢

07 was 14 years ago. Definitely clean car though.

[@georgegomez7173]

Damn, this TSX looked so neat and nice supercharged at 411hp and 295 torque. 👍

[@TCGhits]

I love everything about this. No fart cannon, no raspy sound. This is my type of set up! I’m not a huge fan of the superchargers but they are slowly growing on me.

[@TCGhits]

Correction. I thought this was a supercharger but theirs a brand call kraftwerks supercharger (which is a turbocharged kit) I thought it was a supercharger but it is not.

[@johnconnor2402]

@@dawicked2k8 It's technically way more than 5 more hp. They measured hp differently in the 06 - 08 and if you put them side by side on dyno, the 06 - 08 will have 15 to 20 more hp. Not a lot of people know about it!

Still driving my 2007 with 145. Stock auto hit would love to try and boost the HP. What would be a good first step?

Oh my God. It sounds freaking amazing man. This is goals for my 08 TSX. I'd be happy to push 300whp running low boost for longevity

As a TSX owner that supercharger setup is goals. Except the part where you have to give up the AC.

I think it can be built to run a welded bracket of the intake manifold. That way you can keep a/c unit.

Still want one of these a lot but ended up with an ‘08 TL Type S so no complaints.

I’m surprised that the owner didn’t update the VTC. How much more power would he net with a 45* VTC on this setup?
