had my first track expirience today. it was about 90 degrees out. the best time i was able to pull was a 14.6 @ 98mph 2.3 60'. i dont have the slip in front of me but im almost certain those were the times. i was hoping to do a 14.3 but wasnt able to. these are the mods i have...

CT Icebox
CT catback
XS headers
P2R spacer
Outlaw manifold spacer
UR pulley

my times seem kinda high for the mods i have. i brake torqued between 1500-2000 RPM. took out the spare and jack. I weigh about 160lbs.

oh yea my car also has a 142k miles

anyone have any advice?

 

FI if u want to go faster. lighter rims, take out seats (dead weight)

 

what are other tl-s running???

I wanna go with mine, before i do anything to it.. prolly run like low 16s.. thing feels pretty slow.. well thats compared to my other cars :lol:

 

everyone has tl's. it's pretty lame

 

 

no i'm saying like doesn't anyone want to be different? its the typical either black or white with blacked out windows and rims.

 

my 02 tls ran 14.9 with just the intake resonator removed and i think no mid muffler and drop in k&n filter. with the same mods and a 65 shot dry i ran 14.3, peeling out most of first and some second on the stock michelins

 

Posting that comment on a TL forum is lame. GTFO

 

yeah that sounds really high for all the mods you have.. i was thinking you should be able to pull low 14's with that, ATLEAST

 

i'm differet...

 

get a civic

 

How would you feel if someone said that?

Btw what's so different about your tsx? the floor is yours.

 

Umm isn't this your car? I guess you don't want to be different

 

^BAHAHAHA, wait the pink Volcom sticker makes her ride different and sick. Of course when u go on a TL forum your going to see TLs, what did u expect. I bought my TL to b different, I havent seen any around here with mods, and didnt know people did em till i got on here.

And back to topic i thought itd run a lil faster with the mods u have too!?

 

What was the weather when you ran? You are in the 14's so its not bad. More runs and gate shifting could improve your times.

 

Please dont even mind that clown with the "PINK STICKER ON HIS REAR WINDOW" when he knows our 2nd GENs would gobble that TSX up in a heartbeat........I think 14'Zz is pretty fair for our cars....-its Luxary and still it could run you DOWN,

 

i think "he's" a girl

also on the black and white car thing...

she owns a white car.. and i read that shes looking to buy a black 09 tsx...

wtf

 

reguardless he/she/ or it, would suffer a brutal loss, if they ever stepped up to the plate.......i swear this isnt a site for retards, yet some keep joining putting on 24'Z? putting BIG PINK STICKERS ON their REAR GLASS WINDOW?? .........anyways back to the topic, lets bring our track times down!!!!!

 

^Word bro!!!

 

with a 6spd u would get into the 13s with those mods, our AT sucks at the 1/4 mile. get a tune so all your performance parts are giving u the most power

 

what teh fuck

 

gib 6spd plx...

AND two of her 3 threads were regarding painting her white tsx black. i dont get what runs through these people's minds when they post.

 

BAAHAHHAHHAHAHA giant pink stone? different? everybody and their mother have stones in their window now....

 

Why is it better to gate shift then using tiptronic? Or does it not matter?

 

Your trap speed seems to be right but I think you might want to work on the launch? get it down to something like 2.1-2.2 and u will see mid 14's i guess.

 

did you have VSA turned off also?

 

It was very humid and in the 90s.

I had vsa off. It was also my first time so next time will be better.

 

As for the chick with the tsx, GTFO of my thread. Your postings have no relavance to my thread and I have to go through a shit load of responses to find answers

 

^LOL seriously, peeps nowadays and their really irrelevant responses. Anyways, did you neutral drop it? I mean thats EXTREMELY bad for the tranny but hey, why not lol.

 

No neutral drop. That's askin for a blown tranny. Brake torquing at about 1500rpm. As for someone elses posting as to which is better gate shifting or triptronic. Gate shifting because u can hold 1st gear longer.

 

in our cars we make the most hp at 6700-6800rpm. all the dynos ive dont to my car, the hp drops down from their.
