Go to a mitsubishi dealership and trade the TL for an evo. Suburu, Audi, and BMW dealerships will also suffice. But, ballin is correct there is no Turbo and the supercharger is for the base TL not TL-S and only gives 40-60 not 150.

I offered to bring my TLS but they are located in Sacramento so I couldn't do it. Anyone willing to sacrifice your TLS for the rest of us? lol

No turbo..no twinturbo...

Comptech did however come out with a supercharger kit. It will put you around the 330hp area I believe. Kit costs around 3k-4k and installation is another 1k.

no turbo kit is available to my knowledge, but it can be fabricated ....

the above information came from my motor guy probably in liu of my driving style primarily and the fcgt , but reality is the turbo would not blow off appropritely (in time) and would continue to spool...

you are almost 100% incorrect. The TL's ECU has no method of being tuned, the car uses Drive-By-Wire and back-up systems that help to over-ride many of the piggy-back systems like the emanage ultimate. The transmission has nothing to do with this, its only tuning that is holding back the car, and if you did replace the trans, you would have millions of errors to deal with, for example LIMP mode. Your motor guy doesn't know the real issue with the TL, he is just making generalized statements.

its been done a couple of times with the 7th gen accords, which is basically the same car so its very doable. yes its a tight package, but it works. whats really nice is honda did most of the work for us by casting the manifolds right on the heads, which in turn work like turbo manifolds and will save you alot of time and money getting some custom ones made. just simply bolt the turbo's and figure where you want to run all your piping (wish it was easy as it sounded lol) ;)



why would you want to do that? theres relatively no difference from the accords j30 ecu all the way up to the type-s j35's ecu. if the aem FI/C worked for me, no doubt it will work for you TL guys. its just a matter of calling boomslang and having a PnP harness made for those that dont want to hardwire it in.

remember, one of the other 7th gen accords thats SC'd has the TL ecu installed. the frankenstein ultimate/blue combo works the exact same for him as it does for me, so im 99.9% sure it will for the TL-S also. :D

hmm k24 swap is in my head...lighter, cheaper to make fast..actually has aftermarket support...hmmm

Why do I think it wouldn't be that difficult for GReddy to offer a Ultimate/Blue hybrid model for Accord/TL tuners? I'm sure they're not that different at the early stages of manufacturing. Has anyone ever informed GReddy that we have to buy 2 of their boxes to get a full tune? I think the footprint of this community could promise them X amount of sales if they hooked it up.
