Bunch of questions.

I am in the process of getting a TL. I want to know the following:

::Where can I find the best price for an A-spec kit? (Ebay?)
::What type of intake?
::Slotted/drilled rotors for 6MT brakes?
::Type S tails?
::Comptech springs?
::Comptech rear sway?
::Rear type S side markers
::Last but not least. What type of exhaust is this?
http://i17.ebayimg.com/01/i/07/c2/4a/a4_1.JPG

Sorry if its anyones car here. I saw a WDP with that exhaust last night and I couldnt see what type... There was no writting on them anywhere!

A-Spec kit= don't pay more than $850 or so and I think you can find it on ebay
Intake, Rotors, Springs, RSB= I like AEM check with Josh from excelerate ExceleratePerformance.com
Type-S tails= Acura Dealer
The exhaust looks like a Comptech I think

There is a group-buy going on right now with the aspec kit for $799. Here is the link:
A-Spec Body Kit! New Price $799 shipped!

AEM is the most popular brand of Cold Air Intake for 3G TL's.
You can find it on eBay for $225-$250.

Also check eBay for the rotors.

Type-S tails and side markers can be found here:
Honda Acura World
or here:
Acura of Escondido
for about $200

You can find Comptech Sport springs on eBay for $215-$230.
They lower the car 1" front and back.

Acura of Escondido also has the rear sway bar for $130 shipped.

And I'm not positive, but the exhaust may be the Comptech Axle-Back Exhaust.

There are not many options for brakes on the 6MT as of yet. Slotted/Drilled rotors will be hard to find unless you pay $600 for the Disca Italia ones, which is way too much for two rotors.

FUJITA makes a great intake too. AEM and Injen are also excellent products. AEM is the most popular CAI for the 3rd gen TL. FUJITA and AEM ahve very similar hp curves and gains. Let me know if you need any of those parts.

Yeah and a search would bring up those personal experiences.

It doesnt take 1 min to answer all the questions you asked...

Ill leave this open, if people want to take the time to answer you then fine. But you can find all your answers with the search function...

Excelerate (Josh) can answer all your questions. I'm too lazy to do so but I'll just refer you to Josh.
