Unichip is also not one of the safest things on the market. I had one on my WRX (which I promptly removed after 1 week) and you get some not so great driveability problems. I would personally just stay away. In my case UTEC was better for the WRX.

They have intakes, now hi-flow cats, exhausts, springs, coilovers, wheels, intake manifold thermo spacers and all kinds of other crap. What are you looking for 80-100hp then yeah go with the comptech supercharger. Want 80-100+ do a custom turbo setup. How much aftermarket support do you expect there to be for a entry level luxury sedan built only for North America and built off the Accord/Inspire chassis? Maybe it's just me but the aftermarket support for the TL is definitely growing. It's never gonna meet TSX, RSX/Integra, Civic support. A lot of which has to do with this being a North American only car.

What I was just asking, is there any simple bolt on's for the car. I understand the whole SC and turbo, but just looking for small increases. Thanks for the help!!

Well that's not how you worded your question. Actually adding lighter wheels and coilovers can make your car feel like it has more hp because you are getting rid of unsprung weight. As for small to moderate gains just read all the threads in here. There are several testimonials about AEM intakes, Comptech Exhausts, UR pully, and even the hi-flow cats.

Sorry for the incorrect wording, but I didn't realize I was back in school. But anyway, I don't want to " feel like it has more hp" I want it to have it. Well I guess everything made for this car is not exactly what I'm looking for. I really didn't want to rice out a $35k Acura, if that was the case I would have bought a Civic. I have owned many Hondas and Acuras, and i just thought they would have produced more aftermarket products for the car, I guess I'm wrong
But thanks to everyone for your help, I was just really looking for some type's of computer upgrades and some types of simple little tweeks here and there. Thanks again!!
