Turbo RDX
Apparently the April Motortrend says the Acura RDX will have a 2.2L turbo 4cyl engine making 260hp/260ft-lbs with the RL's SW-AWD system.
Sounds too good to be true!!!

It doesn't necessarily have to be an entirely new engine. They could take the K24A and destroke it with different crank, rods and pistons.. or make a "stroker" K20A.
One of these two options could work well if the rod:stroke ratio isn't thrown off.
One thing I do wonder about though is Honda using an open-deck block in a forced induction application. I don't know for sure but I think the K series blocks are open-deck with floating cylinders.

In addition to Motor Trend, Japan's Mag X is also saying 2.2 liter turbo.
Britain's CAR as well as MSN Autos are saying the RDX will get a new V6.

I'm not saying it is impossible, but if something like this happens, I hope they turbo some other stuff, like the s2000 or RL. That'll be crazy.
