    By deck it out what is she planning? I doubt the aftermarket is that great right now, but for the true enthuisiast i'm sure you could find accord euro r parts for it if you have the scrilla

    yea id probably go the oem-ricer route and pick up the aero kit, as well as getting rid of the chromed stuff.

    after that, i/h/e and a hondata flash (rumor has it that a k24 reflash and a programmable k series ecu will be out soon?). ive also heard that a dc5r lsd fits into the tsx tranny so u might wana check that out.

    Like not keeping it stock.....body kit, turbo, i/h/e and ecu. Her other choice is the Rsx-S but i would think turboin a 2.4L motor would be better than turboin a 2.0L motor. From what I hear, the TSX motor is the same as the Type S motor cept for the displacement.

    20 inch rims? Loswer it with some springs, leave the stock dampers in, WTF are you talking about? The TSX is basically the same car as the euro accord. There is a Euro R and also Spoon has chosen it as it's main race car, mostly because it retains the double wishbone suspension. They have already made lot's of parts for it and will continue to make more. Yes, the TSX has the same head as the RSX and just bigger displacement. There will be everything available for the car from engine stuff to body stuff to suspension. I doubt there's gonna be much aftermarket stuff made available for the TL, plus it's an even heavier car to boot

    Does the TSX have the same bottom end as a CRV? They have the 2.4L ivtec engines correct? Also the element has that engine i think..

    the crv Vs tsx engines are like the rsx base/siR Vs thersx-s engine...differences wise, aside from displacement

    from what i've read up on, the cylinder head is the same as the rsx type-s so i'd assume any turbo kit made for the type s should work on the tsx with the concerns being fitment under a new hood and electronics to some degree but not too much. Or get her the type s and mate that cylinder head to the 2.4l crv block from a yard. Start the new gen of honda hybrids. that'd be pimp

    You can't use a header if you run a turbo...

    I'd go I/H/E, Hondata Reflash, Phase Kit all around, and then some 18' Volk Racing CE28N's in Gunmetal w/ polished lip.

    TSX's are sexy...
    I remember when me and my friend test drove one...the dealer told us he "wanted us to drive it like he knows we would if he wasn't with us." 185 up countryhills, oh such fun.

    Anyways, Homie! First what yah gotta do is get the 1 wiper conversion, and chrome that mutha out, then, LED washers, LED valve stem covers, LED Exhaust Tips, and an LED intake cone.
    Then, put blue seethrough tape over all the interior lights.

    THen you need some rims, might i recomend 16" motegi's. Dont worry about lowernig the car, IT LOOKS COOL THAT WAY!


    [/bandwith wasting]

    Anyways, yeah, just do what everyone else said...
