Have you seen your TL underneath ?

I found these cool videos that explains how the 04TL was designed underneath. And some tips for improving power.

http://www.vtec.net/articles/view-ar...icle_id=197549

there are 4 videos there:
- Under your TL ................................... 29.1 MB
- Front brake ducting ............................. 7.1 MB
- Torquesteer ....................................... 7.5 MB
- Cold-weather performance of optional HPT tires. ..........5.3 MB

enjoy!

sorry about the links, I updated the links above.
they are wmv files.

Thanks for the videos. I really enjoyed the commentary concerning the grippiness of the limited slip - instead of torque steer.

For those having trouble, drag 'n drop

You need to go to the link in the first input. You will have to register, though. Takes only a minute to do.
