Ok...this raises questions in a number of areas...not enough info on whether it is a universal acura product with the 6cyl engines. I would like to see, assuming its the same thing for all years, how it deals with the obd1 and obd2 and then the most recent obd2 changes that have been made to the ecu. comptech is having a bitch of a time working with the 04 TL's ecu and their supercharger.

Doesn't sound legit. Kind of hard to have one product prouce power in so many cars. I don't think he did R&D for all the cars listed.

It saddens me how many people fall for these things... basically you're paying 20 dollars for a 50 cent resistor.

SNAKE OIL!! While there are in fact real and valid applications of car system tuning, the gains this is projecting are simply laughable. Look at the company Superchips, they make a chip for the 200x Caddy CTS V (base 400 hp) and the tune they provide only bumps the car 13 hp.

Unfortunately Superchips no longer makes chips for imports!!

If you carefully read the ad it says that the chip will fit 1999 to 2004 Acura TLs with a 3.0 litre engine. How many of you have a 3.0 litre engine in your TLs?
