on your work Kris I have done a auto to 5sp swap on my integra the swap was easy but the wiring is a pain in the butt. I am planing to do the swap on my tl also just waiting for you to finish your project and find out what I need. Too bad you live too far or other wise I will help you. It looks fun

Well its at the dealer patiently waiting for them to open in the am. I ran into some electircal issues ill need to work out when i get it back. The drivers window switch works with the key turned to the off position, but the other windows dont work. As soon as the key is turned to the run position the other windows work. The door locks arent working the way they should (i think its a lack of having all the wires hooked up. the window switch is bugging me. The blinkers work, the hazzard button doesnt. 
all things i need to work out another day. Cross the fingers it starts tomorrow

I need to find some one willing to test out a few spots on the fuse panel for me

Any plans to take it to the Acura dealer? I'd bet Acura would be interested in it, maybe even get written up in the Acura owners magazine. Heck, Acura might even decide to give you a brand new manual TL!

For you to get this far on a project of this size in only around 3 months is nothing short of amazing, considering that you are only working on it part time. You really are THE MAN!!!!!!!!!

That is awesome.... Do you think it may be one of the new sensors you put in? Sounds like a limp home mode of the ECU. How much did honda charge you Kris?
