I like how those TSX rims look on the TL, didn't know there was an ECU flash though, how'd you get that done? Any noticeable difference? I'm highly considering switching out my interior lights for hyperwhite as well. nice looking ride!

Not to burst your bubble or anything but a B18C1 is rated @ 180 but only puts down 145-155 wheel on a good healthy one...on a great day

ur typical honda CBR and yamaha R1 is better.. does 10 and 9 seconds quartermile.. so I don't get what's so special about that bike. eddie lawson repica or not.

That's a very clean car tho. nice ride.

btw how is it a silent killer? and wtf is high performance tints... do the tints make the car 12 second in the quarter?

Or maybe they resist heat so much they eliminate the need for air conditioning and you can take all that A/C junk out for high performance!! LOL. And BTW, 11 sec 1/4 mile times are not that fast for a 1200. You could get a better looking bike that is quicker for the money. I do like your car tho, its clean.

I'm on the fence on the rims - not sure I like them, but definitely don't hate 'em. What makes the tint high performance?

Double-Glazed with High-Performance Tinted Glass

This figure illustrates the performance of a typical double-glazed unit with high-performance tinted glass (which is also referred to as spectrally selective tinted glass). This tinted glass reduces solar heat gain to below that of bronze or gray tint but has a visible transmittance closer to clear glass. High-performance or spectrally selective tinted glass products are typically light green or light blue. The tint has no effect on the U-factor but reduces solar gain, which may be a benefit in the summer and a liability in the winter depending on local climate conditions.

"high performance" is used everywhere these days... heck they make high performance air freshners.


oh btw, im curious about how you "flashed" the ECU... cuz i dont think anything can be done to it without using an external module like the Unichip or E-Manage or something of that kind...

basically i think your tl has been done all wrong and is not a killer of any sort
your civic looks like rice and even with the b18 is still quite slow
and your bike looks older than i am

but to each their own
i bet you love them
