I think it's pretty sweet. I really like the turbo in those things. Give's good spool time/tq and also give great high end power as well. Great design

Re: honda's first stock turbo - THE POWER OF DREAMS

Well of course you wouldn't use it off road or for racing purposes but it's still pretty cool in my opinion. It's still a nice SUV and it's still going to be pretty quick for one as well. And I really like it just for the design of the turbo. Is that a new design or have I just not seen them before...?

Actually the TSX(or was it TL) had a SH-AWD form. Pretty badass car. 300hp methinks if I remember correctly. Heavy as ---- though.

Are the A-specs not handling packages too?

Also what about the CRX AWD?

Re: honda's first stock turbo - THE POWER OF DREAMS

LOL yea i read a few test drive on some magazine last night, they are saying the exhaust/hot side housing has a valve that shinks the exhauts path at low rpm to increase veloicity to help spool up, it starts to built boost at 2K rpm and after certain rpm it opens up to imporve flow, they are saying the engine will pull fomr 2K all the way to redline . and i don`t think it is all time 4WD either, it pretty much work like the RL, sending power to the opposit real wheel when the front tires spins.

heres an online review.
