Bolt On Performance Mods?

What bolt on performance are out there for the 1st Gen TL? I know of the Legend Type II IMs and the Legend GS/NSX calipers & rotors. Does any company sell intakes, headers, exhausts, UR pulleys, etc for our vehicles? Do they sell them for another Acura/Honda vehicle that we will still fit and work on ours?

Weapon R for an intake, OBX for headers, Fujitsubo for exhaust.

Most Legend parts fit, but some things like block off plates, etc. will throw codes on our OBDII system.

Thanks guys. I guess, ti's a good thing that I still have a brand new and in the box OBX header that I had for my CL-S in the garage. With those, I've read that different gaskets and studs/nuts should be used. Does anyone know the right guage? It's been a while.

A CL-S header won't fit our cars... Our motors aren't sideways.

Our cars don't have any aftermarket support.

I have a contact in the Caribbean. At his location they get Japanese spec vehicles. I'm going to ask him if he can order any stuff for the Inspire from the Honda dealership.

^ No, they don't, which is why I like it.

It does make it sorta special, but some more suspension options would be nice, amongst other things.

I'll see if I can grab some JDM options for the Inspire, hunt for some springs that will give a nice quality drop, custom exhaust, and the Type II IM mod. I should be fine with those.
