The Aisin TKH-001 belt kit is your best bet. It contains the belt, tensioner, and water pump and it is OEM quality at less cost than Honda service department parts.
Pros: OEM quality, less cost
Vehicle:
Honda Pilot
Part number: TKH-001
I'm about to do mine in a 2017 RDX as well, and just picked up the Aisin kit.

OP, you do not need to do this at a dealer to get a quality product. You can have a qualified independent perform the service with an Aisin timing belt kit (they supply the original parts to the Honda Motor Co) for a lot less than a dealer is going to charge. The end result will be the same product for less.
Pros: quality product, original parts, good value
I have used the aisen kits for almost a decade. They are very good quality & manufactured with high quality Japanese parts . Yes , they are more expensive. Make no mistake , aisen kits are the best timing kits you can buy
Pros: very good quality
Cons: more expensive
Only use Aisin timing belt kits since they contain OEM high quality Japanese made parts.
Pros: OEM high quality, Japanese made parts
I paid around $240 for an oem Subaru timing belt kit with new water pump/tensioners/pulleys/seals from bam. Then bought a few jugs of coolant from Walmart for 60$. the shop around me charges 450 for install. Also the oem radiator is made by denso . You can get it off rockauto for 110$.
Cons: overpriced install
No way a timing belt kit and water pump costs 1k
Cons: expensive parts
Vehicle:
Subaru
