Customization is done professionally by someone or yourself. Check DIY section for ideas!

I'm going to add more to the list, this is just a preview of the guide. If you like to add more to this or edit, please by all means. I took information from different websites, and threads through Acurazine.. This is just basically to help noobs get a idea what kind of parts are available for the TL, and comparisons, pictures and feedback on each item will be added. Basically this is a big thread to learn and discuss parts. Just thought this will help out the board and noobs on the website. Hopefully we can get this stickied!

 

Also, this is strictly learning and not a bullshitting thread. If you have something to say, should be informative! Thank you.

 

type S manifold, throttle body, OE spacers, Mugen Cooling need to be added. Nice list!

 

nice reference list.. i needed one of these. thanks!

 

Great idea. Next step is to add approximate prices and HP gains.

 

great list.

 

Unorthodox Racing make a few different pulley sets for our cars. Ultra S is underdrive crank, Ultra SS is underdrive set, Ultra Sc is stock size lightweight crank, Ultra SSc is stock size lightwieght set.

 

damn yo awesome idea man STICKY!

 

Of course, thanks for all the support so far. If someone can help me, that'll be greatly appreciated ( Giving numbers of HP gains, prices, comparisons, some type of information on each product ). Thanks again!

Will update tomorrow!

 

XS headers gain = 35 crank HP / 30 torque $98 shipped

 

maybe a noob question but why did u state "not preffered" for the short ram intakes?

 

Because the short ram will draw in "hot air" and the intake sits by the battery area. A CAI (Cold Air Intake) has longer pipes that the intake goes away from the engine and situates itself in a cooler position compared to the short ram. A CAI is located behind the bumper..

 

ok i got you.

 

this needs to be sticky for sure

 

Addition suggestions:

1. Grounding kit
a. Make your own with 4ga cables and nice aftermarket battery terminals.
b. Apexi ground kit

2. Hyper voltage kit, goes along with grounding kit.

3. Tranny cooler

4. Optima battery(red top or yellow top)

5. Custom wheels(lightweight of course as this is a performance thread not a bling thread)

6. Upsizing tires for better traction and handling. Example instead of 205/60/R16's upsize to 225/55/VR16's.

7. Iridium plugs(NGK Iridium IX or Denso Iridiums)

8. Top mount spoiler(on top of the rear window where it meets the roof)

9. Comptech Supercharger and other CT parts.

10. Racing pedals

11. BRAKES: too much to list here, you guys know the brands.

 

Definitely a great start! Here's some more additions:

CAI: AEM makes a regular intake also (non-V2)
Headers: Comptech, Megan, Stone, Alphawerks
Exhaust: Comptech axlebacks, Neuspeed, Mugen (very rare)
Springs: H&R Sport, H&R OE, Neuspeed Race
Struts: Eibach dampers
Strut bar: Cusco adjustable bar, Cusco non-adjustable, Comptech, Cusco lower strut bar

 

I forgot to add the Comptech Icebox to the CAI list.

 

we need to get dyno numbers on the mods and list them, great thread idea

 

great thread! Finally someone thought to make a thread to help people like me who have no idea as to the different options for performance. it would be awesome to see prices for the parts and horsepower gains so i can get the best performance part for my money, but a great start none the less

 

Don't forget about ksport coilovers, custom turbo setup, 6 speed swap

 

Lmao, thanks for all the work dudes! lol

Well this is a mini update, changed the colors for better reading, any other suggestion please let me know. Will update tomorrow or day after. Let me know how's it going so far!

 

VERY NICE post!

 

Great job! You could also add good places to purchase the hard to find products for the best price .

 

Nice post. Lots of great info.

 

Awesome thread. As a new owner of a 2002 TL-S, I am most appreciative.

To go with the Comptech supercharger, how about adding the Comptech transmission cooler kit (recommended by Comptech to go with supercharger installation), Comptech headers and downpipes, Comptech stainless steel axleback exhaust, Comptech quiet tip inserts, Comptech sport springs, Comptech anti-roll bar, Comptech shock tower brace, Comptech camber adjustment plates (front and rear), Koni shocks (already listed, sold by Comptech too), Comptech fuel pressure regulator (I believe this is included in the supercharger kit as is the Icebox cold air intake), Comptech High Volume/High Pressure Fuel Pump, Brembo 13" four piston front brakes.

Is that too much info?

 

Great idea!

 

Nice work so far

 

Another Update, added more information, will update again soon!

Combinations/Notes
Bolt Ons!
-Intake, Headers, Spacers, Pulley, Exhaust = 260HP/TQ to the crank {99-03 TL-P}
-Intake, Headers, Spacers, Pulley, Exhaust, Supercharger= 300+HP/TQ to the crank {02-03 TL-S}
-All the parts give about the same results when combined with each other expect for "Not Preferred" Items.
-To compare products, do research before asking, tons of threads and posts.
-Nitrous will also help but isn't recommended, a 75 shot is about 75 HP, 50 shot is about 50 HP to the crank

Megan Racing (MR-SSH-HA98V6 TL) Headers

 

K&N 33-2133 Replacement Air Filter

 

Thanks for the info..I needed it lol

 

If I remember there is some suspension bar that goes under the center of the TL and maybe looked like "H" shaped. I think it was blue and on ebay listed for the accord but fit our car. There was a post on here about it and I forgot where or what it was called, but it was either $75 or $125 and the thread was talking bout it would firm up frame/suspension even more. Does anyone know what the F I am talking about because I cant find it now and want it.

 

bump

 

those are only for the tsx the ones for the tl are just a brace

sorry mods, I'm sure you will clean this up along with other posts when this gets stickied

 

Sick list. Dont forget the BBKs!

 

great post. sticky it!

 

You can add the Progress RSB, the 3rd gen fits the 2nd as well.

 

Never heard that before, that's good to know since there aren't many other options for that.
