agreed!

this engine (made by Hytech) is kind of old news to RSX owners (from ClubRSX)... They released the kit like 6 months ago, and it costs something like 12 grand installed by them.

check it out at whttp://ww.rsxtuners.com

from what we've seen with dynos, this thing does not actually produce 320 WHP. Maybe somewhere around that at the flywheel though...

-rpm's should read rpm.
-no itb's.

You're thinking of the wrong motor...you're thinking of their K20, not their destroked K24, there hasn't been a single dyno plot posted anywhere on the engine's power output.

The correct website address is http://www.rsx-tuners.com

LOL...if you read the sign almost everything on the list is internals...what do you want to see a bunch of pistons and rods on a table, it's a fully assembled engine.

I answered you below on another person's post, but to elaborate for you the ITB's hadn't arrived in time for the show, however the set for the S2000 were available to view...which I thought that I had take a picture of...but it's not there

ok? and...

their K20 engine puts down something in the range of 265whp, when it says it makes +280... so you can assume that their numbers are off.

Do you know what the second header made on the engine, or the second set of camshafts, or just the first tuning sessions...

What was it that they say when you assume something...
