For the turbo I recommend www.cybernationmotorsports.com as they've turbo'd the most RSXs and have the biggest variety.

For the ECU most people either use the Hondata K-Pro or for Cybernations Guardian. I've heard great reviews about the K-Pro, but i'm not sure about how compatible it is with the turbo and if the Guardian is better or what not.

Wilwood or Stoptech offer the best brake kits for the RSX. Stay away from AEM (its only for looks) and Brembo (its great but costs more than the turbo just for 2 front rotors). I don't know much about Rotora.

Tires depends on how much you're willing to spend...Bridgestone pole position S-03s are great but they're very expensive. A lot of people choose Kuhmo Ecsta or Falken Avenis.




And if you're looking for aesthetics, there's lots of ideas at www.thersxsite.com

you were afraid that itd cost a lot of money to modify a car? :rofl:

just some quick advice...doing anything more than regular maintainence on ur car will cost more and more money.... because first itll start out with this and then that... and itll just stack up... god knows a lot of people here have dropped thousands of dollars on the engine alone not to mention some bodywork.... so yeah....

You'll get sponsors if you have connections, an already existing good looking, high-profile car, and if you go to car shows. It can take a lot of patience and luck to get a sponsorship.
