S.P.E. Helix Throttle body Spacer?

gavriil

Sounds great. You need to have someone else video tape you cos you cant hold the camera steady at all...plus it's nightime.

Dope vids, Your car sounds sick from speakers. You have to use the strap from the camera and hang the camera from your neck at the perfect height so that you can stear the car. I've driven this car and it pulls as hard or harder than a Type S.

bigman

yeah, i couldnt hold the cam because i was ss shifting. But i really shot the vids for the sound.

briancl

nice vids. your car sounds sweet. how come your cai is so loud? i've heard my friends injen short ram on a 02 tl and it sounds just like that. what's your secret?

bigman

spe helix throttle spacer, with the combo of the headers and cat back.

Crazy Bimmer

hey hows your cousin doing with the 325 drop top?

bigman

he got rid of the 325 and has an M3. He was kicked outta the fanatics forum, but he is registered under a new name. It's kinda obvious. He is one of, if not the only guy from Yonkers with a White M3.

Crazy Bimmer

oh i dont visit that forum much anymore since my 330 was totaled. Tell him i said SUP when ya see him

pimpscls

holy crap ur tl sounds awesome can i make my cl-s sound like that what kinda of magnaflow exhaust u get and how much?

Davediego

whered you get that CAI spacer and how much did it cost?? also does it add more power or just sound?

bigman

like 4 of the accord guys dynoed the spacer for like 2-4 horses and the samefor torque throught the rpm range. It gives a little more throttle response, ut nothing too dramatic. The selling point is increased gas mielage and sound. I think the increase of gas mielage comes from me not getting on it all the way because the sound comes in at part throttle. Spe still makes them, but not for our cars. I bought one off a 98 cl owner, and had it bored out to match the throttle body. The only thing though, is the new spacers dont make the noise. So you would have to find an accord owner with an original design.

bigman

anyone esle

CLASSYCLS

nice job BIGMAN ...sounds real good...

Chaptorial

Nice vids. Love that sound.

vinarnold

nice video sounds good

jermz123

sounds good!

CLASSYCLS

I saw the BIGMAN and RONDOG's car up close, and both of them looks and sounds really good!! Nice job guys!!

pimpscls

how much are cai spacers and how to install if my car can sound like that ill do ne thing

scalbert

Better recheck the calculations for HP. If 2 - 4 HP was given throughout the rev band there would not be 2 - 4 lb/ft torque throughout. Same goes for vice versa; the math will not work out no matter what.

bigman

no, i meant peak torque and peak hp. They did see up to a 6 hp increase at some points in the dyno.

El pana/TL32

Will the Accord V6 01 fit a 99 TL? S.P.E makes one for the accord according to their listings of applications.

bigman

i had mine bored out to fit my throttle body. Cost me 15 bucs at a machine shop.

Rock2534

that thing sounds nasy, i love it.

Rock2534

nasty, sorry.

MattR97

So I am confused, which one can we get to fit on our cars? Looking at the web site still unsure. The sound is awesome well worth the money if it comes out like that.

bigman

i will post the specs if anyone wants me to.

El pana/TL32

I spoke to Dean over at SPE and he wants to design one specifically for the TL/CL, he is out in Little Rock, any one that can swing by and have him take some messurements?

Bigman: if you bore out the center, don't you mess with the design of the piece?

bigman

Nope, didnt mess up the design at all. The machine shop measured the groves in the spacer and once they bored it, they made sure the groves were the same thickness. The spacer sounds the same before and after. They did an awesome job. When i called spe, they said that boring it out and matching the grove sizes would be like having them do it. And there machine shop wanted 300 to do it.

El pana/TL32

Alright! I appreciate the feedback. Question: Do you have the street or strip version of magna's mufflers?

G-UNIT

sweet music to my ears....
