So replying to a thread on NSXCB I came up with this conclusion that they will either used a tweeked MDX engine or a V10.
I was looking at the Honda engine range on Wikipedia?Google and this came up:
Honda G engine
The Honda G series engine is an inline 5 cylinder gasoline engine, originally used in the 1992 Acura Vigor and in the honda accord inspire they used a 2.0l inline five. In 1996 the 2.5 TL was made available with the 2.5 L 176 hp (131 kW) SOHC 20-valve 5-cylinder engine from the Vigor. In 1999 the 2.5L engine was dropped from the TL line-up.
G25A1 Specifications
Bore × Stroke: 85.0 × 86.40 mm
Displacement: 2451cc
Valve Configuration: SOHC, 20 valves, non-VTEC
Type: In-line 5 cylinder, aluminum block and head
Compression ratio: 9.3:1
Max power: 176hp (131kw)
Max torque: 170ft·lbf
Redline: 6500 rpm
So if we double it and tweek it :
Honda X50A1 ( My own take on the name )
Specifications
Bore × Stroke: 85.0 × 86.40 mm
Displacement: 4902 cc
Valve Configuration: DOHC, 40 valves, VTEC
Type: 10 cylinder in V 65° , aluminum block and head
Compression ratio: 10.2:1
Max power: 502 BHP *
*176hp x 2 = 352HP + 150 BHP from higher compression and revs, DOHC and VTEC = 502hp
If the C32A made 200 BHP and the C32B makes 290, that would be and extra 90 BHP from the DOHC, higher revs and VTEC. That would be 15 BHP extra per cylinder.
Max torque: 400 ft·lb
Both the c32A and G25 produce about 34 ft.lb per cylinder. It will not be hard for them to extract an extra 6 ft.lb from a V10.
Redline: 8500 rpm
65°
There you are that is my take on it.
Cheers,
