Ok so you have a RSX? And it’s turbo? And you drive it every day? Yep I think you have a reliable fast daily driver. #jdm #turboacura #carolinatunerculture
Rescue 24 You can DM me in Instagram @_angel.rides or @carolinatunerculture let’s talk maybe we can take a drive that way and meet the car community around you
Great build man must be a fun daily I have my rsx set up for the dragstrip fully built bottom end k24 rods and pistons and new springs and retainers for the head it’s running on hondata with e85 on a walbaro 525 pump and precious turbo 1000cc injectors it’s ripper man
Sounds like you have a very nicely build there. Awesome!!! Send us pictures of your car to our Instagram to post on our subscribers saturday rides. Would love to share it with our followers
I like the camera shots in this, the angles you are using with the car driving by is on point! Nice job, felt like I was watching a car documentary on A&E or something, what speeds did you actually get up to ?
how much money was out into the build if you don't mind me asking?? My cooper s just broke and i want an rsx but i just love turbos too much to go NA lol
That can be different depending who you ask lol. A simple low boost set up you can invest in to $2,500 that’s including a proper tune, that should get you to the 250-300hp range.
All K series motors are iVtec motors. Some just only have vtec on the intake cam such as this.that’s why people swap to 20 heads out of the type s or Si because they have it on both cams.
If you can follow our Instagram page we were surprised how many dc5 are in the area and will be getting them all together soon. You are welcome to join us
No shame on that lol it is a sound that fills my heart haha 😆... send us some pictures of your car to IG to post them there if you like. @carolinatunerculture
The owner of the car went over mods with us 😃 Greddy turbo all the way to the exhaust along with all components. We had another local RSX driver reach out to us and will be doing a cover next week, stay tuned you will like it as well!!! Now can you tell us about your car? Also if you like send us pictures in Instagram or Facebook to display your car!!! We want to show everyone ride off 💪🏻
We have seen several different set ups on the car and you will not be disappointed!!!. Please keep us posted with it and if you don’t mind send us a few pictures on Instagram to share with our audience if you like @carolinatunerculture Thanks
It’s not non-vtec, it’s half vtec. All Kseries engines have a variation of valve timing. This particular engine has the vtec cam lobes on the intake side only, as opposed to a k20a2/z1 rsx with variable cam lobes on both sides. This particular trans and also the ep3 5 speed trans (maybe almost identical if not the same) happen to be the stronger of MOST k series stock transmissions. I would trust the 5 speed over a type S 6 speed power wise all day.
Awesome man we appreciate it!!! If you haven’t, subscribe so you can keep up with all that we do and it’s going on in the area we want to show off everyone local rides
I could not answer that one but If driven conservatively you will not lose much on mpg. Of course when you get the itch to step on it you will drop mpg’s
I went with a stage 2 clutch on the same hp rating not sure the brand. It has taken a little bit to get use to but feels like good not to stiff and not so soft.
At the time of the video we were experimenting with a lot of things we were learning 😃 However he truly uses the car as a daily Elias sees him all the time
At the time of this video we were figuring out a lot of things, distance from mic being one of them, we believe recent videos audio has been so much better
Carolina Tuner Culture Angel & Elias yeah 03 Acura rsx type S clean ass this lol same color just base has lower compression and less hp but it’s vtec still 😀
SoCal to Baja cal Cool man definitely a good looking car all the way around. Have you seen our other video with the red RSX type S? A different set up and still fun
I’m glad to find fellow tuners in NC on here. Shortly I’m picking up a turbo rsx
Awesome!!! What area of NC are you located at? Whenever you do get your car share it with us, be safe brother 💪🏻
Carolina Tuner Culture #CTC I’m in Burke county so I’m east of Asheville nc and about and hour northbwest of Charlotte

Hp?
You live in my area bro, I also want an rsx n now seeing you in my area just makes me want to get it more. Nice ride to
Send us a DM on Instagram we get together often and have several that are very well put together
Carolina Tuner Culture #CTC just saw you go past my church n loved it
That’s a base model? With a k24 and k20z3 LSD trans... with a turbo... that’s an interesting setup right there.
Yes sir it is, the car pulls really good and holds tight. Not a set up you see everyday for sure
Base trans is better for boost minus the open diff
Devin Laczo does the type s not have an open diff?
@@xckj3776 type s does have an open diff.
@@devinjones9614 I’m going to turbo 350whp and keep open dif type S trans cause fuck it
Very nice scenes 🔥
I like the camera shots in this, the angles you are using with the car driving by is on point! Nice job, felt like I was watching a car documentary on A&E or something, what speeds did you actually get up to ?
Nerve wrecking speed lol 😂 it is a rush every time And cannot get tired of it haha
My buddy has a same car it’s boosted but we don’t know how much horsepower
Sick man
One clean car for sure
how much money was out into the build if you don't mind me asking?? My cooper s just broke and i want an rsx but i just love turbos too much to go NA lol

De Kyler
Oh yeah and we will continue to work hard to bring better content to the public
These video was kinda creepy to watch with these guys talking
Lol 😂 we cant afford models yet haha 😎
Just gotta add like some low volume background music or something to make it less awkward 😭😭
How do you hook up the gauges? Also how is it fluttering, no bov?
Yes sir it does have one
Tbh I just want my RSX to go stututu. 😂
No shame on that lol it is a sound that fills my heart haha 😆... send us some pictures of your car to IG to post them there if you like. @carolinatunerculture
I have a turbo rsx as well. What kind of exhaust are you running?
Will have to get with owner later on, if u can find out I will comment here
So how is the car doing now since 2 years any rebuild at this point 👉
Is that downtown cary? I haven't seen this car around :(
Downtown Monroe actually. About 40 min south of Charlotte in 74
That's a nice daily driver he have and looks fun as hell
Got that right man it was really cool of him to take all 3 of us in it for a spin
Wow my k20a type r in my 2002 rsx made 800whp awd
Awesome! I too have a daily driven turbo RSX. What is your mod list?
The owner of the car went over mods with us 😃 Greddy turbo all the way to the exhaust along with all components. We had another local RSX driver reach out to us and will be doing a cover next week, stay tuned you will like it as well!!!
Now can you tell us about your car? Also if you like send us pictures in Instagram or Facebook to display your car!!! We want to show everyone ride off 💪🏻
I also have a base model as well. I’m thinking about putting a turbo in it also.
We have seen several different set ups on the car and you will not be disappointed!!!. Please keep us posted with it and if you don’t mind send us a few pictures on Instagram to share with our audience if you like @carolinatunerculture
Thanks
Ok I just followed you on instagram.
As you can see the black RSX is the one I have.
Jessica Mathews your account says private I can’t see lol. But you can inbox pictures if you like
Hummm I don’t know why it’s private. I just followed you.
It’s not non-vtec, it’s half vtec. All Kseries engines have a variation of valve timing. This particular engine has the vtec cam lobes on the intake side only, as opposed to a k20a2/z1 rsx with variable cam lobes on both sides.

I would trust the 5 speed over a type S 6 speed power wise all day.
Very good info to have!!! Thanks for sharing
Nope k24a2 has full vtec on both sides
Y’all should be on lookout for a blue 350z it’s a beauty
Where about? If you can lead him our way that would be awesome!!! 💪🏻
Carolina Tuner Culture Angel & Elias I’ll try to let him know ok?
Also he sometimes drives around In Monroe like in the vid
Awesome man we appreciate it!!! If you haven’t, subscribe so you can keep up with all that we do and it’s going on in the area we want to show off everyone local rides
Carolina Tuner Culture Angel & Elias I’m subscribed! 👍
MagisticEagle 23
Thanks 🙏
That wide angle lens
We like it too 😃
Hi do you know the average mpg for the rsx when its boosted?
I could not answer that one but If driven conservatively you will not lose much on mpg. Of course when you get the itch to step on it you will drop mpg’s
18ish mpg but I love the boost
8lbs on a greddy kit is definitely not 300hp. That thing is so small and the pipes are tiny probably need atleast 15 to hot 300.
Why is car so low hp?
Wait this is a k24 swapped base??
yeah base model swapped with k24 and k20z3 trans + lsd with boost
What clutch u have and how does it feels?
Let us check with owner see if we can get some answers
I went with a stage 2 clutch on the same hp rating not sure the brand. It has taken a little bit to get use to but feels like good not to stiff and not so soft.
Stage 2 300hp maybe the was a exedy ill have to check it out but thank you very much for the info🔥🤟🏽
He still got kit
What’s your fb name I have the same car and I’m going to be boosting it I’m also from nc
You can reach us in FB or Instagram at: Carolina Tuner Culture
Whats the song called
It’s called legend from GoPro music
He said its not vtec its turbo. Tsx k24 have i-vtec.
Do you like 300hp for a daily?
The owner is very happy with 300. It is more than usual tu get your adrenaline rolling
I know he didn’t say AME
Long ass intro....BUT prove me wrong when he said.....DAILY Driver...he lying
At the time of the video we were experimenting with a lot of things we were learning 😃
However he truly uses the car as a daily Elias sees him all the time
Why would it be hard to believe a 300 horse power car to be used efficiently as a daily driver?
Stock?
Looks stock but not
I live in NC Charlotte u no anyone who can manual swap my rsx it's a auto
Audio for video is to low
Yes we were still relatively new when we did the video, we have learned and believe have improved in our most recent videos. We will get it right 💪🏻
Which Enkei wheel is that
Not sure on the model of the wheels. Let me reach out to the owner then I’ll let you know
Carolina Tuner Culture Angel & Elias thanks never saw those was wondering what model cause I have a type s and are gonna get wheels soon
pure kush
Cool man, send us pictures of your car if you want us to show it off when you do get them in our social media pages (Facebook and Instagram)
Carolina Tuner Culture Angel & Elias how do i send you the pics through dm
pure kush
DM in Facebook page or Instagram. Either way we got you
base........
Can you post a mod list
Yes sir I can, will have actually a video coming up in that shorty
Carolina Tuner Culture #CTC nice I’ll stay posted! Looking to boost my set up power goal is 280- 310 as a daily driver
Austin Beckford if you can go to our channel Instagram we can help you or discuss further there. @carolinatunerculture
No Vtec that's a bummer bro..... My na type s could out run that
Speech volume is too low.
At the time of this video we were figuring out a lot of things, distance from mic being one of them, we believe recent videos audio has been so much better
You can't really get a good pull in with 4 GROWN MEN in an RSX..WTH??
love me Rex but these guys are cool but kinda make the vid awkward
We were learning and very camera shy 😆 we have gotten somewhat better
Owner instagram ?
Let me find out for you give me a few
@josephhasty5
That’s him. While you are there you can find us too @carolinatunerculture and @_angel.rides
This music sucks a sore tum...
Lol 😂 our library was smaller at the time... we used what we had, got to start somewhere brother 💪🏻
Yo i live right by you and have a turbo rsx hmu on insta that_dc5_guy
We got you 😉
There all vtec even base lol
I don’t know Honda engines like that lol maybe they really are? 🤔 do you own a Honda? Break it down for us if you can
Carolina Tuner Culture Angel & Elias yeah 03 Acura rsx type S clean ass this lol same color just base has lower compression and less hp but it’s vtec still 😀
SoCal to Baja cal
Cool man definitely a good looking car all the way around. Have you seen our other video with the red RSX type S? A different set up and still fun
SoCal to Baja cal it’s got vtec but only on the intake side. So no loud crossover but you do feel the power gains
Chris Vasquez now that is some cool info, again I don’t know Honda engines like that. Thanks for the educational comment!!!
Cringe
The owner boring asfff
Fact. You'll get there one day.
