Guess the cat's out of the bag on the kit...

Thanks for coming out Saturday, Eric...your car is awesome (the pics don't do it justice)...that SC is amazing! The Roja kit will look great on there, no question. And tell your brother I really liked his WRX, too...very clean...would've loved to have seen it really moving...

Yeah I cant wait either. I am assuming this kit is the same one that i've always known as being the RO_JA kit. I thought i had a picture of the rear but i'm having trouble finding it. Theres a larger picture of the front bumper on page 7 of this thread.

CL Platano... Thanks bro, i'll be at SEMA IAS in Philly this year in April.

chill_dog.... It was good to finally meet you. You surprised me when you showed up rolling on those 19 inch devotions! Even though they werent nice and clean they still looked good. We'll run a photo shoot sometime or what not.

I think i'm going to order that front bumper this week and see what shows up.

slowassTL...whats up Matt. i'll be up at VIR with my brother and my boss is going to have is stage 3 Audi S4 out on the track. I think you'll like it.

TLdriver022... thanks bro.

datplayaz... whats goin on Dat. haha i'm not ballin anymore man im officially getting close to being broke. I enjoy modifying the TL.

I have 2 very short video clips of the TL. I'm in the process of learning how to host videos.

If anyone knows the easiest way to host the videos please let me know so I can get these things running. Once I learn how to get them on the internet then i can begin to take better footage. Thanks guys.

Heres another short video clip taken from the rear of the car.

I apologize for the bad quality, but hopefully you can get an idea of what the car sounds like.

I'll take better video clips eventually.

Wow, That's crazy man..

Do you still have a single muffler setup on your car? Do I have to have the comptech midpipe to use the HKS universal muffler on our cars? I wanted to go with your setup, but I remembered something about the comptech pipe on your car.

Thank you! Great ride!!

datplayaz.... thanks dat! its the supercharged version of your TL. (you know you want one)!

JS + TL... whats up bro! I still have the single outlet setup on the car. I've been thinkin about upgrading the muffler to the larger size (i forget the dimensions of the canister) Right now i have the piping from the Comptech Cat back. It's cut right before the split Y and exits out the passenger side at 45 degrees. It sounds fantastic under all RPMs and WOT is unreal with the air coming out due to the boost.

invincible569... yeah it sounds pretty good in person too ill have to admit. My brother told me the car sounds a lot louder now that its FI. I'll have more clips for you to enjoy...inside the cabin and a drive by.

slowassTL... whats up Matt. Hopefully i'll be able to do a parade lap this time around at VIR. I'll definitely hook the video camera up and get some footage. The supercharger alone was still not enough to beat the WRX...until 130mph+ the TL starts to overtake.

lol.... you know I want one, that sounds so bad ... I'm very sure that your car got louder now that your SC, I'm going to wait until summer time to see if RIPP will come out with something, if not then I'm gonna get me the Comptech SC. It's very funny how you and I have very similar taste when it comes to modding out the TL.

Here's a pair of short video clips taken from inside the cabin.

TL Wet Traction 1st and 2nd gear

2nd Clip

The car breaks traction on wet pavement as you can see the tach needle move with a quickness.

The videos were upside down due to the way i mounted the camera.

I dont think that is as easy as it used to be on civics to go from an auto to a manual.

My tranny has undergone strenuous conditions. Thus far its been a fantastic automatic transmission.

I'm running amsoil High Temp ATF.

notcreative... whats up charlie! yeah im still up there freezin my ass off in the warehouse. You should stop by sometime.

ludachrisvt... haha the speedometer is reading 60 mph right off the bat because the volks and bfgoodrich rubber is spinning at 60mph...but the actual vehicle is not quite there yet. Notice how it reads 60 and then drops to 50 and eventually builds back up as it gains traction.

Hey, Eric
What is amsoil High Temp ATF? Is it a transmission cooler thing? What does it do to our automatic transmission? Where can I get it?

Sorry for the string of questions..

Thanks in advance!!

When Versus went to pull the bumper they discovered it was busted or some shit. So it will be a few more weeks before another one can get here. It's unfortunate but what can you do but be patient.

Have you registered for SEMA? I havent done so yet.

I had my cracked windshield replaced today so i'm good to go.

What's up Aaron. ATF stands for automatic transmission fluid. Amsoil is one of the brands that manufactures the oil. I originally went to the shop to find redline but they were sold out so i resorted to amsoil. Either brand will do for the time being.

I'm not exactly sure what it is about the oil that makes it beneficial. I assume it has some type of additive that is more conducive for higher operating temperatures in the transmission.

I purchased it from CP Racing in Charlotte.

Hey bro, ever figure out if that strut bar for the accord will fit? Also, hook it up with the vids to my email when you get a chance. Damn PutFile always closing my browsers for some reason! Can't take the mental anguish any longer of not being able to see your last vid especially!
