Glad you are enjoying your mods dude but seriously you need to research around the forum, read the countless threads on everything you are looking for, and comprehend on what mods you would like or my not like to consider. Everyone goals are different; so you need to understand what YOUR goals are.

Just take it easy man, dont endanger anyone out on the road with your new lead heavy foot because of the new mods you have done. I dont want to see you in a few months posting pictures of your car looking like a smashed aluminum can.

Honestly at this point, your next mod(s) should be the 3.7 intake manifold & throttle body, ported runners, and cams (not in any particular order). I'd recommend doing the manifold/TB/runners at the same time though, whatever you do. It's up to you what you want to do next. Btw, I forget, are you a base or Type S? 6MT or 5AT?

If you do cams, you MUST do a before/after dyno on the same dyno. If you don't, you're not allowed to get cams.

Regarding HFPC, are there any particular benefits of ordering them with ceramic coating instead of without the coating?
Especially for someone in the northeast? Thx.

Two years on mine with no ceramic coating, upstate NY (near 'Cuse, not like Poughkeepsie) with no problems. Save your money.

Ceramic coating just keeps the engine bay temps down a bit. Richie said most get it without the coating but some go the extra mile. I just put an order in for the HFPCs with the coating I figure why not it's only 80, some lugs get up near that price haha

A 20-year-old driver suspected to be under the influence of drugs caused a major wreck in southwest Houston, detectives said.
Houston police said around 1 a.m., a driver headed north on Chimney Rock Road suddenly veered across the median and into oncoming traffic, slamming into an SUV traveling south.
Emergency crews transported the driver of the SUV to the hospital with minor injuries.
Detectives said the driver who caused the collision was also taken to the hospital, but not because of his injuries. Officers said he transported because he told them he had taken 10 hits of acid.
Let this be a lesson to you RxR. You should take Sonnick advice (read my signature).

luckily for us, most people interested in modding cars are not very interested in the TL because it is a very expensive platform to run boost on and NA builds are not frequent enough yet to be readily available.

If u did that in my neighborhood I would be in my window with my AR aiming at your gas tank in the scope. Then guess what click click.... BOOM. I mean seriously, grow up kid. Slow your roll. Just last week u didn't kno the difference in the only 2 pullies made for our car and now ur talking about cams? Sit back read a little bit and make ur own decisions. Then when u actually kno a little bit about what your talking about u can ask questions. It's been really annoying watching u water down this site with useless posts. Every question u asked has been answered if your would just search

PCDs and mounts were fun I will tell you that.. Hell even the rear engine tq dampener that Accordcpe04 sells over on v 6 p was not fun to install. J-Pipe was easy when using a lift. The mounts and pcds were done while the car was on the ground.

Moronic statements like this are one of the reasons the government thinks they need to ban AR's. You're not helping the cause.

Seriously asshole? How is that a moronic statement? His statement about going thru rich neighborhoods sounding off car alarms was pretty moronic. And the government thinks they need to ban AR's cuz you have unstable idiots wanna shoot up schools and movie theaters. I am prior military and know how to handle my weapon. But if an immature kid comes thru your neighborhood and sets off your car alarm just for fun wouldnt you be pissed too?

I totally agree with you!
