Fixed.


There's a recent Buick that I've seen with that. Looks out of place. But it does look good on Maseratis.

the portholes back in the 50's were used as kind of a status symbol. makes me sick to see them on $14g impalas with 22's.

If i'm not mistaken, back in the day, the amount of portholes indicated the amount of cylinders in the engine under the hood..

Question: Hi there,

I was wondering what kind of setup you had for your turbocharger. I am familiar with the Comptech supercharger kit for this model TL, but I didn't know there was a turbo kit. Is it intercooled as well? How much boost are you running?

Do you have time slips? I am interested if this thing can run under 13.


Answer: THis acura tl doesn't have a turbocharger...im sellin it as is with everything audio wise with this vehicle...if sound, bass, television in the dash, and light effects is what your interested in then this could be for u...if not then for power and the price this auction is a steal because theres over 6,000$ invested in custom audio setup and mounting the car looks brand new. if not then sorry its made to have one put in though and stock its incredible and better then its ever have been running since i had it. immaculate.

might be possible. come to think of it, i've seen buick supers(came with three portholes) with v8's. the roadmaster(top of the line) had 4 portholes as well as a v8.
