2010 Acura TSX V6, Supercharger or Turbo? Are there any other parts you would suggest?

Which would be better for a 2010 Acura tsx v6 3.5 liter: turbocharger, or supercharger? and what company? I know there are no kits out for it yet (i think).. but I would really like to find something to give it some more power. Thank You!2010 Acura TSX V6, Supercharger or Turbo?

I don't believe there's any off-the-shelf, 'plug %26amp; play' forced induction solutions available for the new V6 TSX. You can get there, but unless you're a seasoned mechanic, you will likely need to turn to the services of a reputable shop for the special fitments involved.

The only supercharger available for the HONDA 'J' series (V6) motors is made by CT ENGINEERING (formerly COMPTECH), and that unit has been adapted only for the 3.0L %26amp; the 3.2L engines. People have modified the kit to fit the Gen 3 TL Type S, so it's possible to adapt to your car, just not a simple deal. Personally, between the supercharger and a special, 'one-off' turbo assembly, I'd go with the supercharger. COMPTECH was sure to keep the performance envelope to a safe, street drivable level that doesn't compromise the 'open deck' block and the pistons which have rather thin rods...they're not made expressly for forced induction motors. Serious FI work involves rebuilding the internals with forged parts. Companies like KMS (HONDA) PERFORANCE ENGINEERING offer a line of such parts that will fit the J Series V6 engines. In short, whatever FI method you go with, you'd be wise to keep the boost very modest, to say around 4-5 psi, and accept an additional 40-60 hp gains. Another reason to keep the boost to a lower level with a stock engine is because of the high compression (11:1). The motor's already running on the verge of detonation/pre-igntion. High boost levels will force the ECU to continuosly retard the ignition, so you basically won't realize the full potential of the blower/turbo. And for sure you'd want to start with a CAI %26amp; catback exhaust of course to extract as much performance as possible. All things considered, personally, I wouldn't go this route.

IMO, the best option is a more conservative approach which is to eliminate the relatively high intake %26amp; exhaust restriction level ACURA (HONDA) puts on this engine. I drive an '06 TL (3.2L) where I've added CAI, Stage 3 exhaust (GREDDY EVO2), ATLP J-Pipe, a High flow mid-cat, and a variety of other power adding mods, keeping the engine 'normally aspirated'. I know I made the base 3.2 TL as quick as a Type S 3.5L because it was verified on the road against a Type S. Essentially, you can expect to see an honest 10 - 15% hp gains by doing an aggressive job of helping this engine breat to its potential. I notice it quite a bit plus I notice the added low end torque, something needed for the J Series engine that's mated to a 5 speed...the engine tends to drop out of its powerband at certain road speeds.

You may benefit from jumping on to: ACURAZINE.COM, V-6 PERFORMANCE.NET, TEMPLE OF VTEC.NET...as well as checking out the following product sites: AEM, GREDDY, ATLP website (various Acura performance exhaust parts), KMS PERFORMANCE ENGINEERING, OUTLAW ENGINEERING (throttle body/plenum gaskets). CT ENGINEERING will also be of value for not just engine mods (not many are available for the J35, 3.5L engines), but also for useful chassis and brake mods.

Best of success!2010 Acura TSX V6, Supercharger or Turbo? Are there any other parts you would suggest?
depends on whatchu want. turbos require more all around work so you dont blow your motor. but superchargers take hp to make hp. then theres turbo lag... its jus a lot to think about. acuras are just hondas so i assume a tsx would use the same engine as an accord. just food for thought.
