  6. All Motor RSX
    This morning I went to the auto parts store and bought a compression tester . I was told that the motor I bought had 11.5 to 1 compression pistons. On all four cylinders the compression tester was pegged out at 300 psi. Does this sound right for a high compression motor or is this just a...
  7. Bolt-On Basics: RSX Type-S
    I previously had a Injen CAI and after a bad flash storm and a flash road flood under a bridge I water-locked my first engine. Needless to say I'm not going with a in-bumper cold air intake on my new engine setup. That said I've been trying to figure out the best intake filter location to get...
  8. Problems & Solutions RSX
    Long story short, my car lights would shut off suddenly when I was in high RPM. The battery light indicator would only turn on when this issue happened. I figured I was having alternator issues, so I replaced it. The battery light went away on initial start with the new alternator. However...

    I also posted about this on k20a... Just got back this weekend from Church Auto today where they recently finished building and tuning my 2006 RSX Type S. Thought I'd post the dyno sheet here for everyone's research purposes since everyone's threads on here helped me figure out what to get...

Being a college student and all, I don't have the money for Authentic pieces, but one day i will :D...
  12. General RSX Discussion
    Hey guys I recently took my car in for a smog and we'll it passed, but when I saw the numbers I see it barely passed on HC ppm. Last year though when I smog it the numbers were really low. Could you guys help me understand what could be going on? The highlighted pass was done in 2012 and...
  13. Problems & Solutions RSX
    After noticing some engine vibes and seeing some wear on the right side motor mount, I decided to replace it. I bought a cheap OEM replica on eBay thinking it woul just get me by until i bought a full Hasport kit. Waste of money. As you can see. the mount lasted less than a month and has...
  14. Bolt-On Basics: RSX Type-S
    Okay guys I managed to get these dyno numbers without disappearing :shady: if you followed the other thread you'll know what I'm talking about:laughing: So the numbers you are about to see are all done on the same dyno here in Portland Oregon at VIP Performance on a dynocom dyno. The BLACK line...

    I just bought my RSX not long ago and was with it all day test driving it, with no problems at all. On the way back home my CEL comes on >.< and after some code scanning found a P1166 code by itself (no 1167 with it, or any other codes) and after a lot of research and testing have...not fixed...
