This section is for the 2nd Generation TSX (09-13). You might want to go here for advice on your First Gen:

What I did right off the bat was:

Changed oil over to Mobil1 Full Synthetic

Changed brake pads to Hawk HPS, stock pads are not up to the challenge IMO.

Removed stock resonator from intake and used a 4" PVC elbow from Home Depot to route the bottom of the air intake box into the fender well to keep the noise in check. Then ECU reset.

Installed Eibach Prokit springs

Last thing I did was order the RV6 down pipe combo. Should be here today!

Next purchase will be rear sway bar and 14lb 17" wheels from Enkie or OZ as the stock 17's weigh about ~22LBS.
