Let me know what you guys think. It's stock right now but soon to be a street machine.

 

Looks very clean, gotta love black on black. Thats tight. Its screamin for a drop tho! What are the near-future plans?

 

well right now im looking into getting the obx header, injen wai, the magnaflow 2 1/2 mufflers, with mabey the intrax springs, or i might just get the 04-06 tl 17' wheels. The Ur pulley kit is last on the list.

 

nice car man! exactly like mine. haha, obx headers? i would go with XS-power headers, much cheapers.. but watever u want. and do u mean injen cai? and ohyea, have u looked into spacers?? (https://acurazine.com/forums/showthread.php?t=156252)

 

injen warm air intake...and yea i looked into some spacers but after i get the 04 to 06 tl wheels, they will be 1 1/2 wider than the 99-03 stockers and I don't really think i'll need spacers

 

Why would you want to draw warm air into your engine

 

Did you even read the link he provided? They are intake manifold and throttle body spacers, not wheel spacers.

 

Why would you waste your money on a short ram intake? They don't do anything. Get a cold air, what are you afraid of?

 

 

Im just trying to get the basic bolt on's. The short raim is still good due to the fact still helps your response and doesn't make you lose the little bit of low end that we do have. Spacers im not to concerned about, and the XS header i hear to many bad things about, at least compared to the obx which in my opinion are a better brand. The Ur kit is on the way and i'll will keep you guy's updated. thanks for your opinions

 

Short rams have been proven to give virtually no gains on the TL. Seriously dude, get a cold air and don't waste money on such a nice car.

 

i say jus do cl-s engine and 6spd tranny swap and add supercharger from comptech!! there's your street machine

 

Hey , i had the same subs in my tl. i went through about 6 and decided to go with Sony LOL. that pioneer warranty is a bitch, but VERY clean car.

 

Warm air intake - (WAI): The most popular setup. You can expect about 1-3hp with any of these setups. The main difference here is noise; these will make the engine noticeably louder under acceleration.

Cold Air intake - (CAI): The Cold Air Intake is a much more potent intake. The installation is a little bit harder, but the overall results are much more pleasing. The cold air intake will make a lot more midrange power than a WAI, and more top end power as well, about double what the wai produces. AEM units replace the piping from the throttle body all the way to the wheel well. They are all make of smooth, mandrel bent piping and with the use of silicone couplers place the MAF in the center of the piping, very close to the stock location. By moving the filter to the wheel well the air entering the motor is much colder, denser air, which helps with power. As well the length and size of tubing helps with resonance tuning. Resonance tuning is very much like sound tuning, where the pulse waves coincide with the open intake valves helping force air into the cylinder.

Really what im looking for is a little more response from this intake and a better look. I will look into the cai.
