Nice. I'm glad people are getting a jump on the details of the RDX.

Sounds like the first plan is to get a new manifold and new WG. 5 psi loss at 4500RPM? I'd be pissed.

the owner of dyno lab seems to think the honda under rated the hp on it as well....

Makes sense. Too much power in the RDX might scare off buyers. The boost leak might have been planned, but this is Honda's first turbo car.

How cute! Awww.. lol

I wonder why they put boost on a SUV before the S2K or NSX?... prolly building up to that and just working out bugs right now so it won't affect sales of the cars when they put them on. Watch out, here comes the Civic Type T (T for Turbo)

honda seems to be heading to the AWD SH setup with there performance cars. The new NSX will have AWD with SH as well. its going to compete with the nissan gt-r.
