The 2005 Acura RSX IS going to have 210hp. The general manager of my store came in today with information regarding this subject. It was confirmed at a dealermeeting that the RSX will get a whole 10 more horses for next year.

Wow, that is great. I hope it gets better rods too.

Someone said they are doing this to bring in the Civic type R and for the 2 cars to be a little bit different.

Well let's hope this is true, but then Honda/Acura would have an ordeal to contend with.

what changes did they make to gain 10 more hp. Did they change the cams, or give it little higher compression? I heard that they added a type r final drive though. Must be a nice tranny. wounder if it comes with lsd

2005 RSX engine code is K20Z1. It makes more power by the addition of type-R cams and intake manifold. It retains the same pistons. The transmission has the same gear ratio as the type-R minus the LSD.
