Hondata sets four new records at Bonneville
Filed under: Aftermarket, Motorsports, Tuners, Acura, Honda
If you’ve spent any amount of timing tweaking the B16 in your EK hatch, you’re probably all too familiar with Hondata. The firm specializes in providing easy-to-use, plug-and-play components for the world’s Acura and Honda owners, and has proved invaluable on at least two past project cars of ours.
The So. Cal.-based tuning firm decided to take to the Bonneville Salt Flats a couple of weeks back and came away with four new class records, all behind the wheel of a heavily modified 2003 Acura RSX. The stock two-liter K20 was built by Prototype Racing and was able to produce 270 naturally aspirated horses running VP Racing fuel, and 390 HP when injected with everyone’s favorite go-juice, nitrous oxide.
When the salt settled, the Hondata crew set a one-way speed of 190.1 MPH in the G/FCC class while running the NO2, and 172 MPH in the G/GCC class with the aforementioned racing fuel.
