Hey, guys. My TL is a 1999 model, and I have already installed the CIA, Comptech Headers, and Mugen exhaust (soon). I am running the quarter in about 15.3 @ 95.3 mph and 0-60 in about 6.9 (these times were run with Comptech exhaust and with a GTech Pro).

My question is this. I would like to break in to the 14's (14.8-14.9) in the quarter. What more can I do performance-wise to get a little more HP?

i'm not sure whether you want to wait, but Acura is developing a turbo for the TL soon. that would be the easiest and if you have it installed by them it foesn't void the factory warranty. other than that, bored and polished intake manifold and high-flow catalytic converters. that is all i would recommend. wait, one more though, wieght reduction. doesn't sound like much, but take out the back seats and the spare tire when you try to race, you will notice some difference.

You can try port and polish or just getting it Exturde Honed...Or Just put the NOS kit in... Acura is seriously comming up with a turbo???? Nice!!!

Where did you hear that Acura is making a turbo?

For additional HP you can also add a fuel pressure regulator and an Apexi VAFC to fine tune your air/fuel ratio for additional hp.

WTF? ACURA is making a turbo? That is the biggest bs. Does it look like honda/acura has any turbo cars or aftermarket turbo kits? Why the hell would they start with the TL?

 

VTEC controller, mod your chip, supercharger when it comes out, NOS!

Well, if you ran 15.3 with exhaust only, you might be int he 14s with the headers and CAI. Run your car with the G-tech again.

Turbo???? Where did u hear that from? All street legal Honda cars are NA why would they go forced induction now?

 

well...you could get larger fuel injectors, lighter rims, and take out the spear tire , i also think you would get a better start if you had better suspension (if dont already do) cas you would have less weight shifted to the back...

Bad ass TL...but...

I know, WTF! I've yet to see any Honda Turbos. I don't even think Japan has any Honda turbo anything. Let's not start rumors now. If true, please reveal the source cuz inquiring minds want to know.
