i think it's a messed up syncro. the guy who did my clutch job was just a real fucktard to begin with so the guys are looking into what else he may have screwed up

totally understandable....that "just keep it on the DL till then" was geared torwards Xiomaro, not you guys. all this "his" secrets stuff kind of erked me thats all. to me, you guys are doing an outstanding job with all your r&d work

oh BTW, i asked for some boost graphs in an earlier post. can you post any?

My secrets will not stay secrets, but it's not fair for you guys to pry at every detail for someone else's hard work and then try and short change them down the line.
hey, if you dont want people to copy your setup, its simple. dont post any pics or vids of your car PERIOD, cause people will ask and feel this way if you tell them its a "secret" reminds me of that Cl6speednoupe guy that posted an very impressive dyno chart, but refused to tell people his mods.. like he's rubbing it in our face.

regarding info on the CM clutch, i had a special made kit that i told you about, which utilizes the stock dual mass FW and still working great in my friends car today. its something def not in production or advertised, but will save you big $$'s.

lastly, i still dont agree with the tune, but thats just one mans opinion. im sure they know what their doing and would love to see a boost graph to get a bigger picture.

I may have to run the CM kit if I don't find another option before I install the turbo. I think running the stock clutch is not going to be good with the turbo.

Nva-av6 I haven't done the check valve delete as yet but will get around to it soon thou...

Majofo yea ever since Xiomaro had someone do a clutch job with an aftermarket setup not sure which setup but it's clear something hasn't been right since , and upon inspection the selector was badly bent as if the trans was dropped or bent second gear sometimes but on occasion has to skip to third so that has to be fixed ,and all other gears works fine , but when driving in gear if u rest your hand on the gear stick it's as if the pressure plate is always slightly engaged ,even a clutch adjustment didn't help, we will get around to it thousnd see what wrong hopefully it's just the synchro ,or something is bent internally ...

Hi-speed if you're going to run the stock clutch components at least use the upgraded disc which should work fine .

04 Accord I haven't gotten around to post any graph right now we are back on fourth working on what is necessary to have a tuned ( reflashed) Ecu to come with our turbo kits , which we will have no date at this point .......

Anyone has the correct injector size for the 2007 Acura Tl type S ??

the sheer fact that you're still on this kick is hilarious. BTW i still had to get a completely custom setup from CM as well. Loni basically told me that the dual mass setup was a balls and refabricated the entire setup for a standard clutch and fly setup. However the installer made sure to make my setup 10x more expensive. So u telling me about your setup was completely irrelevant in the end. So don't worry u didn't give me anything there... u wana know where i got my custom interior pieces too? i don't know if i could part with giving up that info...

and hold out on others?

shouldn't you be ashamed?

Stop shitting on this thread. No one give a fuck what you are running or hiding. The point of the thread is the turbo kit, what parts people are using and updates on the kit. Any other garbage belongs in off topic.

On a more productive and relivant note, what do people reccomend for a clutch disc.

Yeah.. stop polluting this thread.. what's wrong with you guys..

Xiomara is just chang (you're not chinese are you?) with his info, he's always been this way.. even with his hood scoop, but that's alright. It's not like anyone was going to steal your idea & sell it, they were just interested. If it's personal to you then don't bring it up in the first place. You didn't invent the wheel & you're not steve jobs.

In regards to your 2nd gear.. it sounds like you definitely need to drop it & inspect the issue.. pull the shafts & get it back together. Hopefully no major damage has been done, the sooner the better. I hope you get it worked out so you can enjoy that badboy.

What business, and no one gives a fuck about your car. It any type-s guys want the kit they can look at the millions of pics that will be shared by the 3.2 guys or call JandR directly.

seriously...... are you any better than him for bumping the thread in such a childish manner?......... the thread is called Turbo Kit for 04-08 Acura TL not "Xiomaro's secret"

Rodney asked to drop the whole "secret" topic because we do not want a mod to close the thread for being off topic and rambling. we can all agree that this thread has been flooded with valuable info towards our cars and to have it locked because some one wanted to jump on the bandwagon would be senseless. We're all adults here, so lets continue being adults.

I'm not sure if you'll ever get that. Even with a good tune, there are very few production automobiles that have what it takes when you boost the HP this much. I expect things to happen down the road, if I weren't, I wouldn't be doing this.

Thank you Moderator for finally stepping in. I almost lost interest in this thread from all the pissing contest going on. Truly so many have gain valuable knowledge from this thread.

Rodney you are an asset to the TL community and a first class guy. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but when some members personally attack others, it becomes an EGO trip.

Please remember, we learn from failure, not success.

Has anyone looked into turbo timers. The tuner doing my install is all about them, but I am worried about how my car will stay on without the key. Another concern since I park in a garage, is that I will have to sit there with the car or leave the door open until the car shuts off.

If your guys is real good he could probably use a remote start immobilizer bypass module to keep the car running with the key removed......
