I'm interested in getting as much out of my TL-S engine as I can, without doing major internal work or adding turbo/SC....basically all bolt-ons that can easily be returned to stock if necessary. Here's what I've got so far:

-AEM V2 Intake
-PR2 TB Spacer
-XLR8 J-pipe
-Stage 2 or 3 exhaust (i get confused which is which, i have Magnaflow resonator in place of stock and mid muffler delete)
-stock size Unorthodox Pulley

I'm not interested in a full cat-back nor any suspension mods (except perhaps A-Spec suspension when the stockers go). Is there anything else I can do from an engine bolt on standpoint?

not a bolt on but you can reset your ecu

dont forget to donate if you haven't yet AcuraZine's 2009 Holiday Charity Drive

Sorry, but I think that whole resetting the ECU thing is pure crap. 1) There is no confirmation that when it's attempted that the reset is actually completed 2) I really don't feel any difference. I'm really the only person driving the car, so it's only "learning" my driving style, so in theory it wouldn't matter anyway....JMHO... thanks for the reply though!!!

you can do new spark plugs but figuring that you have an o7' you wouldnt need to just yet unless you drive 24/7

maybe an egr block off plate, sprint booster...huge debate over it due to pricing for a little piece of box

unfornately there's not a whole lot of performance parts for our 3g..good luck

You can do a high flow third cat or test pipe;we have the Random Tech cats and our own pipe. You can do the thermal intake manifold gasket from P2R and ported runners. You can also upgrade your mounts for better traction.

Pre-cat deletes FTW.. Most increase in power I felt.

Do pre-cat deletes interfere with emissions regulations and/or warranty voiding?

Man I would say you are pretty much done (pre cat deletes mess with emmissions so I didn't include them). You could try the intake mani spacer but I have read the thread on it and there seems to be hood clearance issues.
