hey gang i have a 03 tl none type s what can i add to make this car gain some speed in the street,mind you i want something thats not going to make loud noise when i turn on the car or when im punching the gas peddle thanks chechoe

 

CAI will make noise, Free flowing exhaust will make noise.

spacer wouldnt..
type S Intake Manifold wouldnt..
Spray lol?

its almost a given when you modify your engine it will gain some noise to a certain extent. best bet for no noise is the OEM parts from a TL-s....

but for the price of the parts.. you might as well buy the motor...

 

FI. end of discussion

 

pulleys

 

comptech icebox and comptech headers.

 

i dont think a cold air intake is going to be "too" loud. mid muffler remover will be.

who would get pulleys, header, and a few other things (type-s swap) and not get a cold air intake?

take out the intake resonator or get a cold air first. you wont be disappointed with the "noise" unless you want the car to be super quiet.

 

uh.. my cold air is freakishly loud...

i'd say do the resonator removal.. add a K&N drop in filter... and make your own pipe that would make it like a icebox..

then.. get headers..... and then pulley... and you'll be set.. won't be so loud..

 

+1.. its not loud for normal driving.. but when your foots on the gas it definately noticable...

 

CAI, Headers, Pulley.

 

freakishly loud when you want it to be, tucked away when you need it to be.

cold air +2

 

you also have an injen.
wayy louder than an icebox.

 

Can he do a Type-S TB? CT Headers would not make any noise though my OBX headers are a little noisy (and no it is not leaking).

 

not gonna give him anything. he need to change it lower intake runners, intake manifold, tb, and get bigger intake piping.

 

Well then there you go...you can do the above and gain some power!

 

gonna get pricey. get a comptech ice box and dc, comptech, or xs headers. they wont increase the sound. along with pulleys, and a tune.

 

make it a 3.5

 

would a TL-p with headers, intake, pullys, tb, be faster or as fast as a stock TL-s?

 

as fast as a stock tl-s

 

faster in my case

 

psh....

 

get off your stick haha

 

those mods are very minimal in gaining power. If youwant to hook up a TL you need serious Dough, and you need serious time.

If your trying to make your TL fast, and quiet, that won't work. When you free up anything in your exhaust system, it will make more noise.

So, theres nothing you can do.

 

^^its true. your car isn't fast unless your exhaust is loud.

do you really think a tune does much after just i/h/p?

 

yup. seen it. added 12whp and 22wtq (some where around their) on an 05 3.5 altima. with intake, pulleys, exhaust. seen it do good on integras and civics too.

 

Wish we could find a tuning solution....time for a TEC3

 

then i guess after i find my icebox and pick up some pullies
its off to get tuned.

 

Spend the big dough and get a full standalone to run the motor and ditch our ECU and have it professionally tuned. Im sure there would be gains to be had more so than using a stand alone and our ECU

 

man. you guys are keeping me broke...

 

lol

 

Comptech Icebox CAI

Headers



That's all I have on mine and it sounds just about stock..still quiet..... Except when you go WOT it just makes your car sound better.

 

fsttyms1, if i do this i would have to get it towed to a tuning shop before i can start it right? Im thinking long and hard about doing this instead of buying hte CL-S ecu


and to the OP

do as fsttyms1 said: CAI, headers, pulleys

the CAI will add some sound, but its not like an exhaust, when you punch it it just roars really nice and deep, especially in vtec.. not the constant drone like an exhaust.

that should definitely keep you happy

+1

 

to make a homemade icebox all i gotta do is take out the stock filter and add a filter to the bottom where the resonator use to go right?

 

the ice box has the filter inside of the box. and its gonna be hard to attach the filter on the bottom bc their is no pipe to connect it too

 

so how does people make there home made icebox?

 

remove the intake resonator, and drop in a k&n drop in filter.

 

tats it? i thought that they add a filter on the bottom of the box where the resonator use to be?

 

na. this if far more easyier and does the same

 

would this way be better than a cold air?
