I think if it was used in saltwater forget about it. There is a post under the Honda forum stating what a problem from salt water usage the waste gate on the turbos is having. Basically they stick open or shut. Honda is offerring the middle finger warranty and not covering any repairs saying that it wasn't maintained properly. The dealer states it would still stick no matter how you took care of it. To add insult to injury Honda says they won't replace the waste gate at all because it is part of the exhaust system, but they will replace the whole turbo assembly for $5,000

See Ya
