Post Help/Thoughts

Hello.

Hello Everyone, My name is Mo. I am new to AcuraZine I LOVE the new TL's and I am thinking about buying one. The thing is I was wondering how much it would cost to put about another 50 horses underneath the hood. and if the new TL's are even worth buying. Cuse it's either the TL or A CTS(not really fond of Cadallacs) so if anyone could help me that would be great and if anyone can give me some info on the new TL's that would be great.


Thanx in advance.

go to the 3RD gen. forum and use the SEARCH function


Get the TL sans supercharger. First, learn how to drive, then, don't be a jackass with whatever it is you're driving.

50 horses?

Comptech makes a supercharger kit for the newer TL's. Not sure if they have em for automatics yet.

You could always bottlefeed your car.

Investing money into the TL to make it faster is a waste of money imho.


A modest 50-75 shot should do the trick. Cheapest way.

no way i'd suggest bottle feeding a brand new car. most dealers if you have warrenty work done and they see anything like that or hints of N20 they have a shit fit. they'll void the warrenty RIGHT NOW.
I'd put headers,intake and exhaust on it. it should be good for about 50 hp(i know i'm high balling it).

You're 16...the TL is too much engine for you stock.

Learn to drive first. mature a bit. Then worry about more power.
