Hey I loivethe the Washington DC area and i have an 03 TLS...i have aemv2intake,comptech cat back, iridium spark plugs, and im aboutto add the pulleys URpulleys... I wanted to know if anyone knew of a reputable shop that could bore the 3.2 out to a 3.5?

 

there no need to do any boring. When using the MDX crank it increases the stroke to make it a 3.5

 

thnx ive been asking all over and noone seems 2 hav a clue

 

Is there a post/article that explains more on this? This seems like a very worthy mod with the right bolt ons, and tuning.

 

id love to do this too... how much $$ for all the parts + what parts are needed???? how much approx would installation cost and how long would it take???

 

How much power can be gained by this 3.5 stroke. I am REALLY interested to give it a shot even if i am the guinne pig. I need to know what exactly needs to be done and i am curious as well why this isnt a bigger discussion.

 

I think Pace Acura (in FL) offer the 3.5L conversion that with the intake and headers was rated at 315hp - 30more than the 2007 type S with the 3.5L.

 

Check out the CL side. There has been some one who has recently done it. The info is on the forum, you just need to search for it

Oh and im working on it myself as a winter project to compliment my 6 speed

 

Kris you are somethin else, would the 3.5 mod work on a 99, or just the type- s?

I'm thinking just a type S

 

I think it would, but it wouldnt have the same gains as the type-s

 

Man, i have to search around my neighborhood for this 1. But my question is, will all the bolton work with this or should i just save the bolton money for this conversion?

 

we should have one of our vendors put this kit together for us so we could get what we want as a package so we dont have to peice it together. Just a thought to make it easier for the forum members. I will also most likley do this swap.

 

Its not just something you bolt on. The engine needs to be removed and machine work done to it.

 

I agree with WTL-S about this. However, since there is a lot of engine work that is required, if the vendors to put together a kit, I'm sure they'd specify that this isn't for anyone with a single motor.

I'd rather do this before slapping on a turbo or S/C, just to get the most out of it.

I've got the CL thread bookmarked. This is definitely something to watch!!

 

I know I was just saying they should put together a Stroker kit for the TL like mustangs have. I remeber they had a kit put together that would stroke the 4.6 to a 5.1 and everything you needed was included as a kit/package.

 

you can skip the middle middle man and just buy the OEM parts yourself and save money

 

Whats with you and the BatMan?

 

everyone likes him

 

you know, if someones does this for TL-P it will benefit lots of users on here if that kit is available. I know I would be interested. Plus it would put TL back on the street with some extra muscle and back in the game with newer cars

 

Yeah man, Once my College starts, ill start looking around for in some mechanic shops who have done some work on Hondas and know pretty well about all those conversions. Plus i need help here too.

 

Damn any new Input, Can Any of you Engine Guys can Put together the EXACT parts Needed for this Conversion so i go Ahead and Buy them and throw my car in a mechanic shop for this to be done.

 

search the other 3.5 thread.
