nice run. what kind of mods do you have so far?

 

I think that is the best time yet. 6MT?

 

Very nice numbers! What time of the year was that?

 

Ryan97812 has him beat, 13.66.
With a blower he might beat my time.

 

I thought Ryan97812 got the 13.66 with the charger? I think 13.7 N/A is the fastest 3G I've seen unless I got it mixed up and Ryan97812 clocked 13.66 before he put the charger in. If so my bad.

 

wow.

 

i think ur right. 13.7 is the fast time without the charger. Ryan97812 ram 13.6 with his charger i believe. But damn 13.7 n/a, either ur car is a freak car or u one damn good driver or a combo of both i give u

Wat were the weather conditions like?

Travis

 

vancouver? guessing it was cooler..

 

NIIIIICE

 

tru..so when are u gonna run that beast dave???...everyones waitingggg

Travis

 

Yea he should let me run that thing down the track.
And from seeing that the trap speed was at 101 mph, means he is making good hp. It has to be cold there, to make that mph.

 

yea.. would like to hear what mods u have...

 

i have thermo spacers, pro-cats,custom 3in exhuast, cold air in take, running bridgestone re030 17in ,and comptech ss,mugen thermostat and rad cap, ran this about one month ago in Mission raceways. but my fastest mph is 102mph

 

Awesome time as soon as i get a clutch i know i will break the 14.0 barrier. it slips all the time when i launch hard

 

The 3 inch exhaust piping is where its at.

Do you have a picture of it?

Nice N/A times.

 

what does the mugen thermostat do? change the coolant temp?

 

Wow! that 'custom' exhaust sounds f^@%ing awesome. Good times bro, making me wanna go run my car. How many miles do you have on your car?

 

It opens up and cycles the fluid at a lower temp. The engine tends to run 25-50 degrees cooler. Not positive, but the factory should be some where in the 190-210 range while the mugen will drop it back to 160-180. I had one on my prelude, helped to keep the car cooler on hot days. The only problem that goes along with this is that the car will run richer. The rad. cap helps to keep the boiling point much higher. Going from 1.1 kg/cm to 1.3 kg/cm or 19 psi. I plan on using the Spoon Rad. cap myself. Hope this helps. Jason

 

post more info on the exhaust.. mufflers, resonator, single or dual outlets???

 

Wow, nice time!

 

 

Can anyone tell me where I can buy the MUGEN thermostat and radiator cap???


THANKS! ALL HELP APPRECIATED.

 

wow nice time. PnP the TB/Intake Mani and see wat happens n/a.

 

Dam that is crazy fast for just bolt ons. Very impressive #'s. Congrats...and you must have the fastest 3G TL in Vancouver.

 

Yes those numbers are very good. I bet after i get my S/C I will only be running similar times. Wish I bought a MT instead of AT.

 

 

With a Dr. Evil tranny upgrade, you should be right there with the 6MT without the chance of missing gears!

 

Has anyone done this doctor evil tranny set up or is this just one of those "i think i can do this for ya"

 

i have, its not in the car yet. he rebuilt my 5AT which is probably very similiar to the ones in the new TL.

i made sure before i bought one that they had worked on the 5AT for the acura before. and yes, they have done them before, but i dont know anyone on the boards that has it on their auto besides me, i'll be sure to be giving a review once the car is together and i break it in.

 

It will probably be easier going this route, than a 6sp sway. Too much has to be done for the 6sp swap. From what I hear the whole front end has to be changed.

The only thing that I have concerns about is the TCM is fed info from the ECU, so you might have to get into the ECU to make any major changes.

 

w/ 6 spd swap you need the tranny, pedal, entire center console, shifter, linkages, new mounts, ECU just to name a few

shifts points will stay the same with the dr. evil tranny, but they incorporate a LSD which should put more power to the wheels, not to mention quicker shifting.

 

great run, very impressive

 

And how much will this Dr. Evil thing cost?

 

Oh yeah, some people are afraid to run that route in fear of loosing down low power. But the loss should be minimal if any, and the power up top and under the curve should increase.

 

Here are some pics of the three inch exhuast hopes this works

 

very intresting i bet it's loud when crusing around?

 

my friends thinks its loud but its still pretty good to me but when im on WOT its loud but its still quieter than my stright exhuast back then before i put the mufflers on

 

Damn.

Thats what the hell i need to be doing.

Thanks for those pictures man.

 

What kind of mufflers are those? I just did my Greddy Catback, and it's quiet w/ their resonators on there.
