I have a 2006 civic si with intake ant TBS. There is a super clean TSX on another site that i was considering a trade for. The main reason for the trade is i really need 4 doors.

My question is, what would be the difference in performance between my car and this TSX. Im sure it wont handle as good but what do you all think the diff in performance will be. How much slower is a TSX.

I test drove one while looking for an Si and I just did not like the feel of the car. The TSX weighs a thousand pounds more than the Si and it shows.

TSX's are not meant for performance.

Get a TL instead.

I thought the 1st gen one weigh only 300-350lb more. I drove one of those before with a manual. More torque, but a little less pull top end. You won't miss the si as much.

tsx is a CLASSY upgrade imo.

Haha where do you get your info??

Civic Si is around 2875lbs
TSX is around 3320lbs

Difference = ~450lbs

TSX are really nice

I test drove a used 6sp TSX while I was shopping for cars. I liked it a lot, but it was just to nice for what I wanted. I wanted something slightly more sporty like the Si. I didn't want leather, nav, and the extra weight of the TSX. It's a great car though.

turbo it and get coilovers, then the weight difference wont matter

tsx was meant to be used for forced induction to be competetive. thats why it has a compression ratio that is low enough for good use of forced induction, and has titanium rods to withstand the power increase.. also the extra weight is to keep the wheels down for FWD when its creating a lot of torque from f/i.

If i were you, I'd never go the n/a route with a TSX...its just pointless.
