Next Mod should probably be the Pullies....

Jury's still out on the UR's... AEM Tru-power's are only ~$130 but are only good for about 3 hp.

Or, you could go all out and get the Comptech SuperCharger...

Perfomance wise there's not too much besides the pullies and the SC.... however, if you're done with the performance part... time to go with appearance

Rims
Tires
Bodykit
HID Headlight Upgrade
HID Fog Upgrade
Tinted Windows
V1 or other Radar detector (Hardwired of course)
various other cosmetic and custom mods (spoiler, mesh grills, painted engine bay, etc.)
New Stereo
Monitors in headrests and visors
PS2 or Xbox

There's always a motorswap...something in the neighborhood of a V12 or W18 would be nice...

I just recently ordered mine from this guy...jus4bulb@yahoo.com. His name is Yu-chun Huang. He is from Taiwan. Basically email him and mention this guy's name...Paul Lee. Paul, sn on acura-tl is songoku, was a guy over at the Acura-TL.com website who setup the prices with Yu-chun. The price for Philips 6000k bulb is $259.99 with money order and $268.00 if paid with paypal. Both those prices include shipping. He also sells the Osram (which I brought) 6000k bulbs for $239.99. Bascially our cars are stock with Osram not Phillips, but most people go with Phillips. I figured I will try out the Osram and see what happens. By the way I hear autolamps-online.com is not a bad choice either. Suvlites.com supposedly is not bad either. autolamps-online.com sells the bulbs for $290 shipped from Europe and suvlites.com sells them for $280 shipped from somewhere.

I'm sure you could do the 6000k fog upgrade on the CL no problem... you'd probably just need different lenses to handle the heat. It is easier on the TL-S, but should still be the same concept on the CL. You would need to buy a HID kit and install it in the fogs.....
