05 TSX

[SinXr8088]

Does the current reflash support the 05 TSX?

I currently am using an entire Comptech setup.
Icebox/Headers/Exhaust.

I was thinking about modding an RSX Turbo for the car, do you guys think you can do a reflash for that?

From what I understand, generally hondata doesn't produce flashes for specific setups outside the #2 and #4 rsx reflashes that are optimized for a cold air intake. People have long been asking for reflashes for things like race headers and specific setups. I think it's unlikely you will get a flash for any specific setup.

If you haven't checked it out, http://www.hondata.com/tuning_the_tsx.html is a good reference for the tsx. They used a k-pro ecu from a rsx to do the tuning, yet since some of the features are not present on the rsx ecu. The instrument cluster, ac, and some other features did not work. The 05 RSX has a similar issue, except an adapter harness lets everything in the car work with the 02-04 ecu since the car feature sets are basically the same between the 02-04 and 05+ rsx.

I hope a TSX ecu kpro is coming soon as well -- it might be my next car if that were the case. The TSX is a very attractive car to me as an RSX owner.

Here's to hoping we see it soon.

We have no reflash for the 05 TSX yet (sorry, can't give an ETA).

It takes significant develoment time to do a reflash for a specific vehicle - perhaps $10,000 of dyno time and our time for an ECU which we can already reflash. Plus we can't do anything for forced induction on the TSX yet. So you can see it is not worth doing a reflash for a TSX turbo kit for you. BTW it looks likely Honda will turbo charge the 07 TSX.

Hello new bottom end!
Hello room for boost tables!
Hello R&D to leech off of honda from!
Hello next car!
Hello boost cams!
Hello another LSD I hope!
Hello car with double wishbone front, 4 doors, rear 5 link suspension, and factory boost from honda!

That made my day... you have no idea.
