Default RDX!

Im in love with the RDX engine just by looking at the specs. 260 torque at 4500, most of any stock honda 4 cylinder. Anyone know if this is a K seriers, or what series engine it is. I would love to see this engine swaped in to any passenger honda.

its a K23

They're kinda fun to drive from 0-60...

thats about it, lol.

When I was working @ Acura, we got a couple for service valet(I was a porter) and I ragged the ever living **** out of them. Its a really nice car inside, I like the styling of the whole car, infact.

Wish it had some more top-end pull though.

It's been talked about many times before. There is almost no way possible realisticly to swap the whole setup into something else plus the turbo setup is small and not upgradeable. Your better off doing a normal K swap and turbo kit.

Quit thinking about the RDX engine it wont fit on K-series 6-5 speed manuals.

The head is casted with the manifold its a useless motor and the turbo....... its small and useless aswell.

the block is designed to bolt to the V6 awd tranny, sooo you cant do **** w/it.

there is a bunch of info over on k20a.org about it... a guy there bought a whole long block and head from acura to see if it would work.

Um, we dont sell these as new cars... ******* idiots.

If they are sold, they are sold as program vehicles. AKA USED CAR. We cant sell them until they have over 5,000 miles on them anyway.

So dont get your panties in a wad.
