Drag makes a kit for the RSX? I thought Cybernation, Greddy, SFP, Rev Hard, Extreme, OBX and a few others made them for the RSX.

Damn I'm tired, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

it's all about the cybernation... 2 guys that live near me have the stage 2... it's extremely drivable and on slicks will pull 11's

I have a drag turbo kit installed in my RSX. As a matter of fact, I think I am the only daily driver with one for the DC5. The production kit is not released yet because he still has some tuning to do on my car. Good kit, uses all high quality parts and the piping is clean with a great finish. I wish I could post pics on here, but this site has so many restrictions for noobs.

CN is farther along when it comes to stage 2 and up for those boost junkies. The installation is not as clean, and the turbo is hidden back in the d/p. I prefer the Drag, but then again, I am a little biased. The turbo is exposed at the top for a scoop to get more air into + you can hear the turbo spinning a lot louder.

Check out the current issue of Super Street... the last article is a black Type-S with a DRAG turbo kit. Looks really clean and the test driver said the power was amazing...

The car in that article belongs to our company, TYC. It gets good power while only boosting about 6 psi. BTW, that car is for sale for anyone who is interested. It only has about 3K miles on it for an '03.

That is the typicaly price you are looking to pay... Is this for a DC5 DRAG turbo kit? If so, where are you getting it installed?

The problem is that the production kit for DRAG is not released, yet. I think that the kit will be available by the end of summer. They still are tuning my car so the production kit will not be done until they have fully tuned it.
