i wonder if you guys can help me....i am about to purchase this clean99TL but y when i pop the hood am i look at this? ....and who is this P2R guy his products all over this car











thats my car by the way......much props the Sean from power rev racing....couldnt get it down without ur help

 

nice ass swap bro!! How much work was involved in swapping a type s motor into a tl-p?

 

literary nothing....all you need is the type S motor...the only thing i would reccomend is that you switch the water neck house w the housing from the original motor....dont worry it will bolt right on the type s motor...the reason being is that some of the sensors are in different positions....mounts are the same, so is the exhaust pipping,....everything bolts in perfectly with no check engine lights.....ohhh before i forget u have to take of the butterly flaps inside the type s manifold

 

What about the ECU? Did you use a type S ecu too? Did all of that just plug and play pretty much? I'm really thinking about doing this on my 01 TL-P when my engine goes.

 

mine is a 99 so i have to use the stock ecu but u might be able to use the type s ecu because u are 5 speed....thats the onli down side to my swap is the im still 4 speed aka always in the wrong gear...lol

 

How does the car run on the Base model ECU? Are you going to get tunable ECU to tune the motor?

 

props

 

Since, I'm not familiar with you and your car. I didnt have a clue what was going on. LOL

nice swap.
is she faster? I would hope so.

time for a 6mt swap!!!

 

Not that good.....this comp pulls a lot of timing....but its still a type s....definately need the AEM for the v6....that's the next step

 

thats a lot of work to leave in the stock 4 spd.

looks awesome though.

nice bay.

 

yea....she is faster...i picked up about 50 hp ova the old motor

 

So I am guessing your redline is still 6250RPM instead of the Type-S 6800RPM due to your stock ECU? I wonder if you manual shift would it let you shift at the 6800rpm redline?

 

thanks those p2r power plenums really set the engine bay of nice...but yea its not alot of work....i have to go AEM regardless of auto or manual....aem is picks up about 30 hp on peak n 60 hp in the mid ranges....trust me having a v6 w/o aem is way worst than a k series w/o k pro

 

yea its kills my power because the car get so strong in the redline u really dont want it to shit.....but in tip tronic u can rev it to about 6600rpm

 

My 99 TL also has Type-S motor in it.

BTW nice engine bay

 

lol....still the first to do w a 4 speed...give me somethin man...lol

the engine bay is all due to p2r....i have my cam gear cover off too....i gotta take some pics of that

 

the red piece where the intake meats the manifold...so ive heard it helps...BUT what does it really do....specifics?

DOPE project meng!

 

it separates the heat from the intake arm to the manifold....it dynos 5 extra hp....while making the hp consistance....my car does the same numbers over n over again....heat soak is minimum

 

wow man ----yer shit is sick looking------good job

hey that red spacer on yer car---do ya know if its possible to get 1 for a 99 TL
