Maybe old news, but XS Engineering is SUPPOSEDLY coming out with turbo kit
do you have a phone number or website / e-mail address?
I would love to talk to them about getting one setup.... (when they are done... but I would love to be able to chat with them about some questions I have about the whole setup.)

Thats sweet man, I am not sure how well you could rely on your car being stock and pushing 280+ HP, but it might be possiable.
Props for doing the homework on it though, so now we know its not just a rumor.
Keep us updated .

Hey everyone, keep callin this guy so we can push him and persuade him to get even more into the kit production info. If you are slightly bit interested, give him a call and ask him for some info. The more pressure we get on him, the more he's gonna want to get it faster on the shelves.
4100 us = 6400 cdn a little rich for me but it would be fun. I guess I'll have to start saving my [IMG]i/expressions/beer_yum.gif[/IMG] money. [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

Ok I just got off the phone with XS Engineering, and they told me that they are in fact coming out with a 7th gen turbo kit. They couldnt give me any info because they guys who are designing the kits are busy dynoing right now. So, Ill give them a call tomorrow and let you guys know what they tell me. Sorry for the lack of info guys!

Ok I just got off the phone with XS Engineering and they told me that they hope to have the turbo kit out by the end of next month. They are not commenting on what hp gains you get because they dont want to run into the problem of saying one thing and actually doing another. The goal is to release it by the middle of October. Just Some more info for you guys.

I was taking it that it will be a shippable turbo kit that you dont need them to install it. Still no prices and what not. As soon as I get more info, I'll let you guys know.

I just called, alex was in the back so I didn't get to talk to him......
the guy I talked to said he didn't know, and the only thing he did know was that greddy was working on a prototype or something along w/ the RSX turbo........
He said he talked to greddy at the SEMMA show.....I told him they had no plans too......cause I have called greddy and HKS 200 f *cking times.......
But anyway..huh.....I might call later and talk to alex......

You guys can call XS Engineering yourselves, here is the number (714) 698-8300, Ask for Chris, Eric, or Troy. They are the ones working on the turbo kit. They told me that it should be shippable by mid october and that they converted the fuel system from returnless to return. Thats the only info they would give me. See what you guys can get from them, maybe even info will spill out if you guys keep callin them. Who knows. . . .
Heh, you know what I want to encourage this thread, I used to be pretty skeptical, hell when the K20a swap thread showed up, I thought No F**king way, its not gonna happen especially not on here, and now there is this talk of a turbo that seems to me about as credible as the k20 swap back then, so I really hope this comes through and comes out, because I am pretty sick of the civics poor power.
heres hoping that this isnt B.S.
