Chip on TL 2004 base...

What can I do to have more power on my TL 2004 base?

Chip or anything else?

If somebody can suggest me couple ways to do it and where can I buy the stuff. (or web site where I can go to see what I want)

I would like a sure solution to make it on my car who won't give me problems after installation.

Thanks!!

Not again.

Here's a few threads asking the same question (which has been asked about 8 million times before):

https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-performance-parts-modifications-112/chips-acura-tl-860325/

https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-performance-parts-modifications-112/gforce-performance-chip-kit-acura-tl-855489/

http://ww.tl.acurazine.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=830550

To give you the cliff notes, no, there is no chip that can be used with the TL that will help in any way. The TL's ECU is a complicated mother that doesn't take lightly to being goofed with. There are tuner options, but they are expensive and rare. I'd recommend you investigate exhaust modifications first then go from there. The stock TL has a lot of restriction in the exhaust. After that, weight loss and possibly a CAI would help. Suspension work also has a lot of potential in improving handling. Look some of those up first. The best way to find info on this site is to use google, not the search options. Google something like "acurazine exhaust mods TL". Good luck and may the force be with you.

i prefer these, and i can buy them at wegmans. one thing to remember is to open the package carefully, otherwise you can spill your chips and lose valuable horsepower.

Exhaust...

What kind of exhaust that you can suggest me?

If you could give me a supplier with his website where I can go to see it, I'll appreciate

Thanks!!
