ideas for performance upgrades

Hello,
This may be a far-fetched plan and a high dream.
I have a 2010 Acura TL AWD 6 speed. I want to build an ultimate sleeper out of it with intention of taking to road tracks frequently. I have seen a Rolex supercharger (needs removal of AC unit) but living in Texas, I need the AC unit. CT engineering supercharger is not completely developed for this generation (due to electronics issues)
Looking for ideas and support from anyone that I can find.
Thank you

Rolex makes pretty good watches so I'd guess their superchargers are pretty good. I'd go that way.

Rotrex is ok too.

If you really want the ultimate sleeper car, save up enough cash to mount a CFM Leap Engine from a Boeing 737 Max on your car, it will increase torque from 273 to 27,000 and get you a top speed of about Mach 0.79....of course, you would need to flash with K-Tuner to defeat the speed limiter to take full advantage of the newfound power lol

I prefer the Rolls Royce Trent 1000 myself. More fuel efficient.

Ultimate sleeper?? Try an engine swap. LS motors are easy as hell to build. JZs are pretty easy too, little more expensive sometimes. Or if you want the stock motor: nitrous, turbo (you can keep the ac), tires. Pseudo has a full list of shite too. Without forced injection it's hard to make these J37s really really fast, but good luck bro

see the other thread in this subforum "slickfabllc turbo kit". It would be a good option since you are a 6speed manual. All of the automatic guys are on the fence.
