After months of internet stalking, finally a proud owner of a 2008 TL Type S in Alabaster Silver Metallic here in Kansas City. I have never owned an Acura and I must say, all of the reviews on how solid and un-tired for a 9 year old car is absolutely the truth. I have a 2008 outback as my daily and I never thought that a FWD car would ever again put a smile on my face until this Type S gem came along. These Type S are truly special. Looking forward to be a positive and helpful contributor moving forward.

Congrats on the new pickup, it looks pretty clean! Out of curiosity, how many miles are on it?

The Jpipe is a great place to start picking up lost power

Hope everything treats you well, good luck and happy modding!

chowallan

Thank you! It sure is. Hard to find one these days with tired or damaged leather seats and functioning heating elements. Currently happy at 98k.
Absolutely, will check out your site for sure when I am ready. I am enjoying it's stock performance at the moment. Rather not fix or replace anything that isn't broken to avoid unwanted issues.
Will research Jpipe when I am free. Thanks again!

Should definitely throw up some more pictures! Absolutely beautiful ride. Congrats on the car!

Do you have any aftermarket audio installs?

chowallan

Sure will. THank you! No aftermarket audio upgrades/additions yet but it would be nice to be able to play music via Bluetooth. Any recommendations?

chowallan

Thank you. I will check out the links later today.

Welcome and congrats! Glad to hear that the DIY threads for replacing the EVAP purge valve canister were helpful. Post more pics when you have a chance!

Cheers to a fellow new AcuraZine member from KC!

Awesome TL-S, still think those are one of the sickest models ever released.

chowallan

Thanks for dropping by. Good to know there's an Acura enthusiast in the neighborhood. Yeah, they are not perfect by today's standards but I am just thrilled that this ride is my first Acura and these are definitely special!!!!!

How are you loving your new TSX? I will try to follow your thread for updates!

Ugh, super jealous! Congrats!

Congratulations and welcome to the forum! (I'm originally from Leawood)

If you are looking for a good shop, check out Revline Motors in KC! The owner Jeff knows Honda/Acura vehicles extremely well and will take care of you.

Maybe I'll see you at a Cars & Coffee one of these days. I try to make it back to KC every now and then.
