performance mods to TSX - what has worked?

Just wanted to see what performance mods people have done to TSX's. I have recently purchased one (Australian equilivant called honda accord euro) and am keen to look at what this baby can really do with a little help!
Thanks Luke

theres only so much power you can make on the FWD car before you start to really get strong torque steer. the TL stock with 270hp already has strong tq steer. thats the draw back of FWD cars.

Thanks for replys - copy of article

Hi guys,
thanks for your replys.
Could someone put a copy of the article re: turbo kit for TSX on this thread for me to have a look at.
I am keen to do this soon.

TSX is fantastic to drive, great engine, amazing 6 speed box and suberb dynamics - just needs a little more torque.

Thanks Luke

PS - Japanese built honda/acuras are heaps better than the ones build in the Honda factory in Thailand.

Accords built in Japan are better than the ones built in O-hi-o but tat's just my opinion.

Going to go the N/A approach - tuning, cams, exhaust, etc.
But awaiting some R&D from Hondata before I proceed.
