Question 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.

~Cheers~

pretty much the same stuff that applies to legends applies to these cars. There are type II swaps, cams, OBX headers, aluminum pulleys (group buy on al.org), ebay has intake, weapon R has intakes, etc.

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.

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.

It looks like I'll be getting a custom Vibrant 2.5" cat-back.
