It is NOT made for the TL-P...there is a thread on this already, but I am too lazy to search for it right now to point you to....

i'm sure that between the accord kit and type s kit we can get something. But if you want to destroy the tranny you might as well spend way less and get more with a NOS setup

It would probably require some custom piping but it should be pretty easy to do. The TL-P engine has a lower compression ratio than the TL-S engine so it should respond better to boosting compared to the higher compression ratio of the TL-S engine. I see no problem doing it. I plan on supercharging my 99 TL this winter. I will not be using the comptech kit though because the blower is barely powerfull enough to supply the engine. I am going to use a Vortech head unit, some custom piping, FMU, blow off valve, ect, ect. I figure I'll have fun building one myself that has better flow potential and save myself a couple of G's. I already have committed around $500 so I can't pull out now.

I guess the email feature doesn't work....

Anyways, I talked to Comptech and they said they would try to contact the couple of owners that have put it on a P model and they said that it wasn't really a problem. They said they had to mill a little something off but it was no big deal. I'd like to speak to somebody who has done it so that I can know what I'm getting into.
