Just curious. I have some crazy ideas for mine, but not for a couple years. I think it would be really cool to make a time atack car out of it. The damn things have great stock suspension, and with a little help from a blower/n20 combo I think it could be quite impressive.

If anyone out there is crazy enough to try this, I'll do the fab work for free.

PM me

 

just keep calling comptech and bug them. i do. hahaa

 

I would not mind more towing power.

 

I don't know about you, but I get about 5-7 mpg when I'm towing. I can only imagine how bad it would be with a blower on it.

Who cares on the towing mpg.

As long as your towing a honda with a honda

Yeah, but it's because i still like to drive 80+ even when i tow.

GANGSTA!

 

I was wondering this same thing.

I've been thinking about when I graduate college, buying a Ridgeline to tow my Civic. There just doesn't seem to be enough power to "really" tow it, if you know what I mean.

I figure a nice turbo with a tune, and I might get somewhere. No aftermarket support for them yet though?

 

It has enough power to tow. I have used it tow my Integra around and with a heavy uhaul trailer too. But more power would of course never hurt.

I tow my prelude with my open trailor around 75-85 mph with no problems. No it wont take off like a diesel but it will get the job done just fine. I get around 230-250 towing miles per tank.

 

how would you tune it

all I can say is keep your eyes peeled for new stuff, I've been playing with FI setups and I'm not gonna quote figures but it's wholy absurd.

However there goes the warranty and reliability so I would stay N/A mine made 300 with AEM intake magnaflow custom and jet reflash it's currently making 310 and hopefully with in the next month 360 then 420 something all N/A It'll do alot more but I'm taking it one mod at a time, with it's current set up its to fast for canyon driving and thats my love in life.

last week from willow spring time attack



BTW check out the ridgeline owners club .com

the only thing i have seen so far is a JET chip. so, who knows?


EDIT: i see you have the jet chip. how do you like it?

 

I love it and the other people that have gotten theres since mine love it

 

jet is like 5 miles or less from my house.

ive been thinking of heading over there, but who knows.

i have intake and exahust on my ridgeline. what exactly is the jet chip, and what does it do? did you dyno before/after?

 

I figure by the time I'm ready to buy one, I can get it used. That way warranty will be close to being up and I can "play" with forced induction.

I just dont want it to feel like driving my DX civic right now..... with absolutely no power.
