Exclamation RSX Turbo type-MR (mid-engine)

I've started a new project. It's a Acura rsx type-s (Revell tuner series). I want to make a mid-engine with a turbocharger.



The rear suspention comes from a old Honda NSX.

Here are some pics of my progress:

Re: RSX Turbo type-MR (mid-engine)

You might be interested in this if you never seen this before. It's not exacly the RSX but it's very close. Could give you some ideas. http://www.team-integra.net/forum/di...urnPage=Search


I would think about doing side scoops like this if possible. He uses one scoop for the air intake. http://www.team-integra.net/forum/di...age=60#1562420

Re: RSX Turbo type-MR (mid-engine)

I've got new pics of my mid-engine project. Today I finished one side of the air intake for the intercooler en airfilter.

I want to make it like this drawing (the airfilter is relocated):



Progress pics:






More pics coming soon.
