factory turbo

[feenix z]

anyone hear about the new rdx with a factory turbo motor? 2.2 liters 260 bhp and around 260 lbs of poke! craziness. the article (which appeared in Motortrend) stated it would be the first, but not last Honda production turbo engine in the usa. man i hope they decide to drop that in the tsx for the aspec package along with the new all wheel drive system. anyone else feeling that?

Man do you have a link to that article by chance? I would love to read it.

This is the only article I could find on motor trends website that said anything about the RDX. It says that it is N/A and has 250 HP from a 2.4 i-VTEC.

sorry, no links. but if you can get your hands on an April issue of Motor Trend, you can find the tiny blip of an article on page 22. But it does say 260 bhp 260 lbs ft and the new superhandling all wheel drive from the RL and Ridgeline. does anyone else notice how Honda is kicking up the excitment in their new cars?

I hope so. Is it me or are the newer hondas getting uglier and the newer acuras getting sharper?

acuras are getting REALLY nice, but Hondas are kinda plain still......except i still love the S2k........................
