he might of been tring to sell garbage but i find it interesting given that i havent seen anyone talk about working on the head of the Jseries... maybe its gonna be a complete fail...maybe its gonna give me 35hp and i'm gonna love it...I dont know all I've been saying from the begining is there has to be other ways of getting a bit more power then just bolt-ons without going FI... you did suggest port and polish the IM i beleive thats another idea.

^ you should just..

hit up P2R

they know more about J series engines than that shop you went to.

http://www.powerrevracing.com/


port polish the IM, tb and lower intake runners.

and then hit up P2R.. ask them whats up.

maybe look into these.
http://www.powerrevracing.com/clplenum.html

or.. 09 TL intake manifold.

probably cause the guy is a 4cyl honda guru... there is a shop around here called chassel who has been working in honda/acura for 20 years... he named me every part that could be swapped from a 1999 1.6 EL to a civic just off the top of his head... he's got like 20 jseries sittin in his yard... i've been thinking of buying one just to experiment a lil.

There's such a thing as supply and demand... if every 2nd gen owner decided to push for a ECU we'd get one but unfortunatly we have people like JJASHAA CHAN who enjoy acting like the godfather in a sport luxury sedan that everyone says is a good buy for the performance to price ratio...never heard CAR AND DRIVER say i'd buy the acura TL cause it has big rims and when its cold i can heat up my bum... most reviews are along the lines of '' good car...good quality...good performance...right price''
you know what ive seen that sooo many times and not once have i seen a modderator say anything about him badgering new members.. and im right there with you anythings possible i mean ppl take v8s and stick them in a ford focus and making it rear wheel drive (totally my intentions with the tl)<< lol but i dont think a reasonable 75hp gain is outta the question and what ever your intentions are with your tl are yours and yours alone so i say dream BIG (OHH if you really wanna get under jjashaa skin put rims bigger then 19 in. on your car) lol

your right about that!! im with everyone on that but opinions shouldnt be so harsh i would say that they should be more of some kind of informative or such this thread has gone way out of proportion from his basis "DREAM TL" all im saying is that opinions should be so harsh as to tell some that they cant do something.....

never talked about hood scoops i was thinking some sory of ram air... like 1/4 of an inch opening in the begining of the hood with some tiny chrome mesh...maybe have a blue LED lighting it up or something...and anyways if the only way to get respect is to do up my car that i bought that i drive that i see every single day then KI** MY A**...as if i have to do the car up to your standards... respect should be earned by having a car and wanting to make it different make it yours...even if others might not like it whats important is that i like it.. you could paint your car baby sh*t brown and have a lime green interior man but if thats what you want and thats what you like then hell you've got my respect.

this quote from another thread is a prime example of YOUR OPINION:

thought we had aluminum radiators along with our aluminum engines already....but i may be mistaken. if we don't have aluminum radiators, i'd do a little simple chem research and find out if aluminum is a better conductor of heat than w/e the original material is. but the cooling system is designed to work idling in traffic when it's 100F+ outside and the A/C is running....so unless you've added something that will increase engine heat output (didn't see anything as such on your mod list) probably not worth it IMVVHO (very very humble)

if you want to be different, call veilside... tell them to make you a fortune body kit, get gullwing doors, some cool hydrolics, some 20+ in rims, a ridiculous amount of stickers, and some underglows. I bet no one here on acurazine has done that, but +75hp to the TL has already been done.

You guys are taking this too seriously. Everyone has an opinion. You can't control what someone's opinion is. Besides, that's why you started this thread right? to get opinions? Not everyone is gonna support you, those are just the facts. You shouldn't be taking this personally. Just brush it off. AZ is tough on newcomers that have a long list of mods that are tough to do and maybe not be liked by everyone.

The more you stay here, the more you'll like it. And in the end, it's your car. You didn't have to take off the ram air hood from your list because jjasha said so. It's your car not his. Personally, I wouldn't go that route. That's my opinion. That's what you asked for. However I think it would be cool to get the CL-S 6speed. Who cares if anybody else has done it or not? You shouldn't mod your car for the sake of modding it. Mod it because you want it to be better.

thats what im gonna do... im gonna do it up to my taste...if i do try ram air its gonna be on a second hood if it looks like shit i wont put it on the car...i mean its not to hard to be civilized and give your opinion without being an ass... the 6speed is gonna be confirmed this week i'm waiting for a call from a shop to give me his price on the complete swap including the console and the clutch pedal and such... only thing i'm thinking is since i've got it in my hands i might go stage 2 clutch or stage 3 if i get really crazy

and I want a mid 13 second 1/4 mile car and i think that just with the 6 speed and the stage 2 clutch i might run low 14 add the bolt -ons maybe get the head done like i was thinking...( although i was told that doing the head of the motor would cause big problems for the block...but thats if the head is full racing setup...I was thinking more of moderate performance setup) all in all i want 260-270whp and a 6 speed with a sweet exterior...
