Are there any performance throttle bodys for the TL?

 

i have one. go to
www.kingmotorsports.com
no one makes a throttle body but you can have it bored out. be warned, your vsa may not work afterwards.

 

i have a posting on here explaining it... to make a long story short, the vsa disables itself for some reason after the service... the vsa is built into the tb, so if you like your vsa, don't do it. i don't like the vsa so it's actually a plus.

 

ok..I went to street and performance today. They used my 07 tls to prototype a helix...their version of the TB spacer...He said he thinks that th 03-04 v6 accord TB would bolt and plug up to our intake manifold, and has a 1/4" bigger bore for more wide open throttle power....I looked all day for one in some salvage yards and even went to the honda delership but i could not find one anywhere to measure and compare....does anyone else know anything about this or have one to measure? The TL TB measures around a 2.5" bore...and he says the 03-04 accord v6 should be around 2.75".....

 

Head Porting <--- how much is it and how much of a gain?

 

Better things to spend money on
And it depends on where in the power band you want more action

 

what could you do for the different power bands?

 

why would the 3.0L accord have a larger TB than the 3.5L TL?

 

good question...thats what i want to know.

 

if your VSA senses an issue with the system, your ECU will not be happy with that. it will hurt your power.

 

Thats what I was thinking, what areas or if any have you seen power increases? How much did you have it bored, as far as the accord part, I wouldnt be suprised if it fits because i have heard of other parts from the accord coupe fitting the TL...

 

i wouldn't put any accord parts into my tl. unless it shares the same part number. and i haven't felt any power loss to my vehicle either. i can easily keep up with and accelerate with mildly modified g35s. i've already put it to the test.

 

Why? Its not like Acura is owned by Honda or anything

 

well, the tl would be considered a better performance car to begin with. why would you downgrade? i know there are interchangeable parts, like they both have the same cams. i know the gaskets sets are the same too. but i would highly doubt that the accord tb would be larger than the tls. i used to put b18a/b/c tb on d16 sohc vtec manifolds and match port them. that was awesome. it sure beats 400 for an aftermarket tb. but the accord with a smaller displacement engine would most likely have the same size if not smaller tb
