The OLD TL, like new again...
Just got my timing belt and all the other required belts, etc replaced..you guys were right the car runs MUCH SMOOTHER, and w/ the Iridium Spark Plugs and NGK wires the acceleration has a quicker response. It feels like a brand new car..

But that was for:
ACURA OEM
1)belts
2)timing tensioner
3)tensioner spring
4)camshaft angle sensor
5)cam seal
6)NGK Iridium Spark plugs
7)NGK Spark Plug Wires
8)Over-Night shipping
9)Installation of all parts and tune.
It took around 5 hrs total, but some parts had to be overnight shipped so my car stayed the night at the shop.

Oil Change and Filter
Spark Plugs and wires
Checking the timing of the car
and other small things.
What I had done was the 100k Maintance. That is a major deal and should only have to be done once, unless you plan on putting tons of miles on the car.
The car runs so much smoother, Idles lower(quiter), quicker accell, feels like a new car.
