corvallis is about hour and half from me.. depending on the day and time haha.. mcminville is closer. i think from beaverton its about the same even going through the backroads to get to newberg and then hitting mcminville.

every time i go out to mcminville it reminds me of the movie wrong turn.. i dont know why hahah

Welcome to the chat BTW

lol thanks carbon.

Yeah I've never been a fan of those towns.

I have family in Mac, Newberg, Beaverton, Portland, Amity and every other small town and yes most of them remind me of old town horror movies.

lol, 5th one coming soon. If they don't replace it for free I'll be leaving the Acura family.

I'll see what I can do in December, I think I took the 24th-30th off of work, but I won't have the TL up there.

If you want to keep it on the down low i could order them (your set and my set) and have them sent to my place. If no one is here to get them, they are signed for in the leasing office for my building and kept there untill i get home
.
I trust them, they took care of my wheels, and exhaust while i was at work.

Let me know!

Rain in Oregon never gets you wet...just gets your car dirty as shit.

I missed how i could keep my car clean all week when i was stationed in Texas.

$25 gets you your TECH card at the gate.

You will need to get the DRIVER CARD at the tech lane for $10 that will last 1 year.

so $35 total the first time, but only $25 after that untill the card expires.

^^it could be due to cold weather, and possibly the dew point. I am assuming you ran at night. Our cars run perfectly between 72 - 75 degrees F, much warmer or colder and the ECU I believe starts making corrections that can hinder performance despite all of the bolt-ons.

I could be wrong though, just a thought.

Is the TSX that much different than the TL? 2 weekends ago when i ran my 14.3 it was balls cold outside. To the point that my car was dropping "below" normal operating temp. I even had to turn my AC on just to get me Fans to kick on.

But as you said, the moisture in the air was alot more this weekend than two weekends ago, you could just feel it. Down side of a track right next to a river

^^Not it's not that much different, but a V6 has more power in general so for a slight loss due to weather you probably would not notice it as much. I can feel mine behave differently depending on weather, but I'm not a mechanic and we all know that the butt dyno can have off days! lol
