Getting straight to the point here, Ive been an rsx owner for a year. shortly after being an rsx owner i went with a JRSC supercharger. i melted a piston with it likely from exceeding the efficiency range of the charger so the idea came up LETS GO TURBO. and instead of buying a kit, i built one. 100% in my garage. and here is a build thread to document that.
you are welcome to ask away with any questions or speak up with ideas or recommendations!
goal: run mid 11's with anywhere from 500 to 600whp
strategy: fabricate till it makes the goal
first the engine needed some good parts. it had a melted piston so i put in an order for everything i would need (valvetrain components, pistons, rods, gaskets, head studs, oil pump, etc) and then dropped it off to golden eagle for a torque plate hone and step deck machining. the engine came out great and was broken in with 2,000 miles of abuse on the street.
Next, Billet engine mounts!
Next, a big boy fuel system! using a return setup, Ktuned FPR, grams 320LPH pump, and 20 micron filter. with all -6 AN lines
Time to fab the turbo hot parts. starting with the manifold
Now for the downpipe! decided to do a pie cut with this setup.
Need to get the intercooler stuff out of the way.
