I've had a 3G TL for a while and have been thinking about whats a good beginner mod to help the driving experience. I think upgrading the rear sway bar may be a good option, but I'd like to hear from all of you guys.

 

yeah that's a great start.

 

Maintenance over mods. If all of your maintenance is up to snuff, for handling, lighter wheels and better rubber is also a good start.

 

+1 progress rsb is one of my favorite mods

 

Do you know of some good companies to purchase from?

 

Im not sure of who all sells it but mine came from heeltoe automotive

 

+1 for Heeltoe Automotive

 

Heeltoe has everything you need, both aftermarket and OEM stock, for good prices.

They also have customer service that's light-years beyond 99% of car part sellers on this planet.

So a lot of people will always repeat "maintenance over mods," I can't agree with this more. I just replaced my motor mounts, torque damper, valve adjustment, and new tires all around. This car RIPS! Power delivery is direct, responsive, and it glides like butter on marble.
I would do any of the above before spending money on sounds and cosmetics.

 

I did the same thing two years ago, clutch, rear main seal, all six engine and transmission mounts, stabilizer bar bushings and end links, axles and suspension bushings, and new tires; it's almost like having a brand new 2006 TL 6MT!

 

Good beginner mod? Supercharger.
