Hello, years ago my mother bought a 2009 TSX that I didn't like at all at first.

It's grown on me and so I will posses ownership as soon as she can get another vehicle because she doesn't want the TSX anymore.

I have been considering an engine swap recently and I would like advice on what my EASIEST option is. I have heard of the K20, K24, and the V6 in the 2010 model but I don't know how easily any of those engines fit in the 2009 model. I also don't know how any other aspects must be altered (exhaust, transmission housing, engine mounts, etc.).

What integrations do you all suggest?
What are my options in turbos and other aftermarket additions?
Lastly, If I want to add a supercharger instead of a turbo, how would I do that?

Not worth swapping. The K24 in it is fine (TSX’s never came with K20’s), not a lot of modification options but it’s a stout power plant. There are threads covering forced induction for these, so do some reading. I’d supercharge it if you’re looking for suggestions. It’s a lot easier than turbocharging as it’s basically a bolt-on process.

lol, I didn't know thats a stock K24. Yeah no need at all.

It's not the "good" K24. Not nearly the aftermarket support of the popular ones.

Do some reading. I'll think you'll be surprised by the 2nd gen TSX in a few ways.
