i've been trying to access the search engine with no luck, I'm looking for the actual DIY thread on the fog light mod to release the high beams from DRL duty and just use the parking lights along with the fogs.
the next issue is i need to change the bulb in the fog lamp button, when i turn the fogs on there is no indication, i figure if i'm going to do the bulb i can probably do the mod at the same time/
last ? is right now i'm running an AEM CAI and am thinking of changing to a Comptech Icebox the only thing is i love the heavy breathing sound the AEM provides am i going to lose this sound if i go to the icebox of should i think about the AEM V2.
if i've made any mistakes posting this thread please be gentle as it is my 1st post

thanks fellow TLer's

 

you have an 02 TL, should be able to fix the dash bulb under warrenty

V2 is running 400 CDN in Toronto area, while you can get teh comptech icebox for a little bit less~

 

not sure on the diy.

as for the intakes the icebox is very close to stock in sounding. nothing like a aem. inless you are looking for that oem look, stay with what you got

 

oh yeah btw i have comptech exhaust and icebox on my car

if you want to hear what's the sound of the intake you can check out my video clips, the intake only growls in WOT, but otherwise it's pretty quiet

and i am in TO too, so we can meet up sometimes too~

 

warrenty?! I've got 214,000kms I don't think that there is any warrenty left lol

 

sounds sweet it makes my decision that much harder

 

what happened? i only got 58000 km on my 3.5 yr car

but i don't drive to work, only out for leisure~

 

comptech icebox will have to get from Woodbine Acura coz it comes with warrenty

i have quoted for a V2 for 400 tax included, but don't think it worths that much, with that money i would do Comptech, since you can resell it with a gd price

i can hook you up if you want any one of them coz i know those guys and would get a little discount

 

i've been dealing with those guys at Woodbine for a couple of months I had my exhust and pulleys done and am going to get my C/T header done there also

oh, and about getting together, sounds good to me

 

oh gd, how much do they charge you for the C/T header installed?

i got one sitting at home now and will install after a 48000km tune up which is due next month

is your TL a type-S or just regular?

mine is a 02 regular TL

 

they want 1900 incl tax installed so i'm going to sleep on that one for now
i've read alot of the threads on the other mfr's and don't want any hassles with the fit as i've had other acura's and put the cheaper headers on and wished i hadn't

i drive a type-s

 

just want to bump the DIY on the fog light rewire mod still looking but unable to access the old thread

 

wow
1900 is very very expensive, esp your car is running over 200000 km

the price of the header is probably gd, but they kill you at installation

i bought a used one for 800 CAD, pretty gd isn't it?

 

thats why i'm going to sleep on it and wait to hear more on the other mfr's
as far as the 200,000 kms it doesn't burn any oil and runs very well
dam good $ for C/T as long as its in good shape,i'm assuming that it is

 

jeff

you can just get the header and install at elsewhere

the place i go is pretty gd, and they only do modded cars

he charges about 70 CAD an hr, but he knows how to do a car right

and no tax

 

214 000km !!!!

 

i'm in my car alot, not that i mind, i love to drive and i love to drive my TL-S, i've put alot of kms on alot of acura's (4 integra's to be exact), and never had a serius engine problem so I'm not too worried about it, if there is one thing that I love about Honda is there engines they never want to quit

 

Have you had any tranny problems???

 

replaced once @ 157,000kms still going strong (so far knock on wood)
