will a 2001 cl type-s thottle body work on my 1999 tl is this the same thing as the newer type-s TB's?

 

Yes, same thing as the 02-03 TL TypeS.

 

thank you very much this would have to be the only reliable forum in the world where i can post a question and get an answer within 10 minutes

 

:'( i know :'(





btw* did you find one?

 

i have a question some what related to this...i bought a AEM CAI for my 01' TL-P...would that also fit on a TL-S TB??? or would i have to get a new CAI?...

 

The Type-S tb is 3''. Your going to have to get an adapter from 2 1/2 to 3''

 

an adapter?...can u give me n xample?...

 

Sorry i was talking about a silicon adapter that has a different size on each end of it. So instead of have the same size connector like your original one on your intake this one has two size's.

 

1fasttl, what has to be modified on our TLP to gain increases in whp if installing a CLS/TLS throttle body?

Thanks!

 

I'am not sure about the TL-P manifold, but you might have to bore out the manifold were the tb bolts up to just to match the same size diameter of the S tb. I could be wrong as i know if you really want to gain some extra hp just go with a complete TL-S/CL-S manifold. And of course you have all the bolt-ons and for and easy 15-20hp you can always put in a test pipe like i did. The only down fall is you'll have a check engine light that's all but wow will you notice a difference.

 

From all the bolt ons that I already have, if I get the UR Pulley, full cat back, TLS/CLS throttle body and TLS/CLS manifold/bore out manifold, I would be able to increase my hp an add'l 15-20hp. This 15-20hp does not include my headers and intake correct?

 

That sounds about right. And that's with removing the cat-converter

 

1fasttl, Thanks for the info

 

No problem anytime

 

any way of disabling the check engine lite...or bypassing it?

 

It's actually 2.75" but who's counting.

 

Yes there is http://www.casperselectronics.com/Me...ory_Code=honda

 

hey i just ordered the type-s throttle body for 135 shipped from texas to mass. not bad. i was wondering if on my 99tl with the type-s throttle body if i could just buy a type s cold air intake so i would not have to use a conversion pipe. Will the CAI meant for the acura tl type s fit on my 1999 acura tl with a type-s throttle body?

 

No a TL-S intake will not fit cause of the VSA TB. The TL-S aem intake is too short because of the VSA.

 

where would i even find the adapter? is there a specific brand?...or is it just a sleeve?

 

You can try like pep boys or any local tuner shop or maybe even home depot plumbing section

 

Where did you order it from? Thanks!

 

Hey soccerbenk, do they have any more?

 

i'll check and let you guys know

 

i dont know if they have anymore thank you 99tlheather for the referal tho it was much appreciated

 

yeah, he da man...

BUT, there's no more available...i e-mail and called em up, both had the same story. I filled a request form on like 10different networks, hopefully atleast 1 will respond and the rest i'll donate to acurazine (refer, anounce, resell...notn's free ho!)

 

Do you know how short it is? could we possible just use a longer extention of somesort?
Going by Aem's website for Cold air intakes, all 1999-2003 base model TL's all use the same part number. 02-03 base TL's have VSA, so why would they still use the same part number with the 99-01's (tcs)? Just trying to confirm this info. I also have a 99 and want to install the type-s TB, but i was thinking of getting a Type-s CT icebox. I wasn't sure if it will fit due to a possible difference in design of the base and type-s TL.

Acura TL 2002-03 A/T Only Type-S 21-419
Acura TL 2000-03 3.2L 21-416
*anybody knows? please chime in. Thanks

 

anyone?

 

ok...the lady at the dealership is st00pid n made me think bout it even more...im just double checking....i have an 01' TL-P...can i replace my TB with a 02' TL-S TB...or mayb a 02' CL-S TB...which 1 is better...thx...i wana get this ordered rite away...btw...i have an AEM CAI for my TL-P

 

I have an 02 base TL and it has TCS not VSA

 

Both the TL-S TB are the same. As for the AEM CAI, you will need a reducer from the 3" Type-S TB to the 2.75" Cai.
