Halfast Motorsports, Split Decision Motorsports, both of which are in Vernon.
Apparently Dynamic Audio does work too.
Never bought anything from any of these places though, so maybe others have more info.

^ if your going to want anything quality for your honda you are going to be stuck going the mail order route. there is another RDX in town with a hondata re-flash but it wasnt a local job thats for sure.
i know lots of the local honda folk, but im not sure anyone around here will have any experience with working on an RDX
welcome to kelownafornia however!

Hondata Re-flash. CP-E intake and downpipe. At this point there is'nt much else you can do. Although, with those done.. You should see an honest 40-50 hp at all 4 wheels, judging by what others have gained with similar setups.
I know of 3 in town that have it. Completely changes the vehicle from a boring SUV into a sports oriented vehicle. Noone in town will have experience tuning them, as very few in north america do. Maintenance and regular work though, see JeffH at Harmony.. He's the Honda MANG around here.
and finally, Welcome.

From everything we've read, with a good intake, reflash and downpipe and it'll be good for mid 13's all day long. Not to mention fuel economy increases substantially aswell.
Exhaust wise, the power is in the downpipe. Everything there after just makes noise, you won't gain much more. My buddy has one, and we've done some homework. lol

Hey Elton it's Tamas...what are you doing in Kelowna? Nice place, wouldn't mind moving there if they had any decent jobs in my line of work haha.
Sad to hear about the Camaro, what made you sell it? Did you move with your lady?
