I have a 97 3.0 CL and all the mods i have are a K&N drop in and i use B&M Trick Shift for the tranny and i run consistent 0-60 7.0-7.1's...

 

Cool where did you get that and how much?

 

you can get the B&M Trickshift at Advance Auto or Autozone and places like that. Where i am, its about $5 a quart and you need about 6 quarts i believe...i know its kinda pricey, but the shifts are much faster and firmer and i can chirp the tires on the 1-2 upshift now!!!

 

..i chirped in second coming out of the dealership.. now i can chirp in third with a 75 shot

 

sounds pretty tight.....

 

Lyle,

Do you think it is bad to use the trickshift fluid?

the acura manual makes a big deal about using ONLY honda fluid....

is the performance increase noticible?

im bout to go get some now!

 

My 2.2 auromatic chirps second

 

How do you get it to chirp second?

 

simple, i floor it

it does it everyonce in a while not always.
but it suprised me the first time it did it

 

What is this Trickshift you guys are talking about. I have the 3.0CL and I can't even get the car to squawk, with the delay the car has with the pedal to the ground in 1st.

 

hey i can chirp em and smoke em up when the ground is wet. otherwise it will take some power breaking. heh. i would use red line atf fluid if anything. but again acura says not to use other fluid.

 

yeah i know the Honda manual is very specific about only using certain ATF fluid. I wouldnt have tried the Trick Shift myself if i hadnt known someone that had used it for over a 100,000 miles with no trouble. You can definitely tell a difference with it...the shifts are much firmer and quicker...B&M claims it reduces shift times in half, so for us with automatics, it makes a difference!!

 

How long have you guys been running the B&M Trick Shift in your CL's? Can you really notice that much of a change?
