TL

Dude nice car. That's sweet. I am going to get fogs soon too. Hey on your alpine deck, does that fit right in there or did that have to be custom made? I can panasonic stuff at cost, and was wondering if certain models of decks will just fit right in?

So the Navi just fits right into the slot without any modification? Does it come with radio or anything like that, or it's just a screen? I'm illiterate with this. Reason I asked because you said you have an Alpine deck in the glove compartment? Explain detail man?

hey, what does that sticker say on your left headlight? (the one with the front view of your car at a distant view) hey, remember i was talking to you about the air filter? remember i was talking about what to do about that plug thats found on the factory airintake? well i noticed in the pic that you just changed out the filter...and kept the air intake stock. good job..

the sticker on the front is "robotech" i think. that was back when i was like 17 and put that on cause i had a bunch of stickers. it was too hard to get off. the reason it's not on the other side is cause i got a new headlight due to my incident with the deer. i don't remember what the size of the diameter was. i think someone else posted it up before. hehe i'm lazy, that's why i only swaped out the box and nothing else for the air filter.

Intake and exhaust

Do the intake and exhaust give you an enhancement of power?
Please give me some detail on the sound difference with the exhaust and intake. Is it a low sound, or does it sound like a raggety muffler? Noticeable difference in power? How many horses?

the intake and exhaust do give a little bit of extra performance. the noise of a exhaust depends on the type of muffler or exhaust you get. mine's pretty low, not rattly.

intakes make a hissing noise(some brands) but hissing noise is a good thing if you want power. that means air is being sucked in... you might be able to hear the hissing noise as you turn off your engine.

as for exhaust, unx is right.. it depends on the exhuast/muffler. if its a catback then yes, it will be a deep throaty sound but you dont want that for a TL, do you?? i had a 5 zigen exhaust on my old honda and it was annoying as hell when i was traveling from houston to dallas. 4 hours of "burrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" lol so you might want to think twice about exhausts for TL's. i just think luxury cars should be a quiet..smooth ride. But if you want..........GO FOR IT!
