What is the 0-60 time on

2006 ACURA TL and 2007 ACURA TL

 

I know it's 5.1 sec for 07 TL-s...auto

 

no its not it TL-s 6spd is 5.7, and TL 6spd is 5.8-9, and TL-s Auto is 6, and TL auto is 6.1-2

 

that'll make the TL's faster than the is350

 

Umm....no

maybe you meant to type 6.1??

 

haha ... you wish
Where you get that number from?

 

TL BASE

0-30 2.6 sec
0-40 3.7
0-50 5.2
0-60 6.9
0-70 8.9
0-80 11.6
0-90 14.6
0-100 18.0
Quarter mile 15.1 sec @ 93.4 mph

 

Care to document that, 'cause I think you're high.

 

 

as long as my car is faster than let's say 70% of the cars on the road. I'll be happy with the figure.

 

You are right on the money. Most people can't even hit a 14.9 with a base TL auto. Most I see are 15.1-15.3. A intake will get you into the high 14's.

Knock off about a half second for the 3rd gen TL-S auto.

 

i did 14.2 at 99mph in a quater mile at the drag strip. i got a 06 tl 6speed

 

Yup doesnt matter what kind of TL you have they are all pretty much slow. The TL-S's are respectable but still by no means fast.

 

i disagree TL's are not slow but not super fast there pretty fast for 4dr luxury sedans anything in the 14's stock is respectable.

 

I could swear somebody with a base 6MT, with an injen intake, ran mid 13's, with a good 0-60'

 

With the high end of stock trap speeds being 99mph, you could hit 13.8 pretty easily on a set of drag radials and a manual transmission stock.

 

Exactly. They're very respectable for what they are but I would never think of taking one to the races.

 

That made me spill me tea!

 

REALLY?? Arrgh, I'm crapping my pants trying to sell my 2G 01 TL-P to get a WDP 6MT 04' TL-P, gotta save all winter though lol... F my life.

 

I should try this, just for shits and giggles.

With the drag radials, isn't there more of a chance for something to break on launch? I can't imagine it's good when you rev to 4rpm, drop the clutch and the car jerks forward harshly!

 

i ran a 13.9 on a completely roasted clutch. now that the new lightweight setup is in i've gota see what i can do!

 

Oh and guys using those little g-tech things or your stopwatch doesnt count!!! Real track times are what were talking about.

 

^QFT

Smart man.

 

Stock my 06 TL auto ran 6.6 0 to 60.With mid muffler removed and custom stock air box with K+N filter per my Gtech ran 6.2.Both runs on same road about same temps.I also ran my Gtech at the track when I ran my truck at Atco last year and it was almost dead on.Track times also very from track to track.

 

I would love to see a G-tech that wasn't horribly optimistic. I've run it along with a group of my friends at the track and the mph is typically 5+mph high. The ET is sometimes within half a second but I've seen it a full second low. IMO, they're good for estimating performance to the nearest full second but that's it.

 

Car & Driver found the same thing when they tested a group of them at a track against the clocks. It took a lot of 1/4 mile runs to get them anywhere near calibrated.

Think a lot of people love them because they show better results then reality does.
