Help
Word of advice for Acurazine, if you want real help from the community...
1) Research. Search and then search again. The 3G TL is 10 years old now. Everything has been covered.
2) Ask your questions in threads that are relevant.
3) Only make a new thread for something NEW.
Otherwise you'll get answers like the 2 above.

Make it fast by buying EBAY parts. Make sure you get the chip that adds 45-85 hp and 30MPG gauranteed in there.
Again, don't quote my words but do some research before you buy.
( OP, make sure this chip doesn't come back to a new thread )

Listen and don't take this the wrong way. You should read the forums in order to understand the J32/35 takes research in order to get the most bang for your buck. In your case the performance section is the place to start. There is a sticky thread (first thread) that has a list of parts you can go by and research to which you need to reach your goals. There are numerous threads that many members have taken their time to create to help us achieve the best performance for our TLs. You should also looking into the vendors link to locate parts if you are going to buy or check the black market for use and sometimes new parts.

I heard straight water in the intercooler to reduce Temps and give power. And also syrup works better than oil. Use toilet paper as your air filter could gain you some power.

This should help you get started on the exhaust side. If you are limited on funds PCDs are the best bang for buck.
Here is a quick RV6 crash course, this is rough draft that will eventually be added to the webpage. You can get more details on the rv6 website www.rv6-p.com
The order of exhaust components.
Heads (engine) > precats > Jpipe > 3rd cat > exhaust
Jpipe+3rd cat delete
The RV6 V3 jpipe is our latest design and has the best gains due to its 2.25" long runner design. It replaces both the factory jpipe and 3rd cat in one piece. No check engine lights are triggered since there are no sensors on the 3rd cat. It is recommended that you get the jpipe before PCDs or HFPCs.
Pros:
Good mid and high range gains
Replaces factory jpipe and 3rd cat in open piece
Bolts up no modifications needed
No obvious place for a 3rd cat.
Cons:
May not pass visual inspection in some states.
Precats
There are current 2 RV6 options for a precat replacement. These options are effective because Honda used a very restrictive precat design. They are made with stamped sheet metal to reduce cost and have a small 1.75" out.
Precat deletes or PCDs replace the factory precats with a straight pipe using smooth flowing castings a 2.25” outlet. Precat deletes include special adapters for the O2 sensors and do not throw a check engine light.
Pros:
Maximum performance gains
Low cost compared HFPCs
Cons:
Raspy exhaust
Exhaust smell
May not pass visual inspection
Requires an extra resonator for rasp free operation
High flow precats or HFPCs replaces the factory precats with high flow catalytic converters. They offer the best of compromise between performance and daily drivability. They are also paired with our smooth flowing castings 2.25” castings.
Pros:
No rasp
No exhaust smell
May pass visual inspection
Cons:
More expensive then PCDs
Slightly less power gains compared to PCDs
