^ I'd be suspicious seeing as how most often when a deal is too good to be true, it's a scam of some sort.

Not sure how it is for the 3G, but for the 4G, the update is the same for US and Canada. Of course, they don't want you to know that, as per my post in another section: https://acurazine.com/forums/4g-tl-audio-bluetooth-electronics-navigation-294/when-should-you-renew-your-nav-cd-my-take-859637/

That said, I'd be surprised if a downloaded version works, but I reserve the right to be completely incorrect on that point.

^ This thread is for anyone who owns an Acura in Edmonton, all is welcome.

@ Arthur - I noticed some power loss with my short ram so I swapped back to my cold air intake, quite the difference in the intake temperature readings. Cold air is always better than a short ram anyways.

I was away in the mountains and came back to this insane heat. Glad to see we're finally having real summer weather though. I was just on the Henday with windows down. Perfect temperature at night

Arthur why not try that windshield heat cowl mod? My car still feels fine in this heat. I want to do the intake resonator delete though to hear a bit more of the engine.

^...my friends 2nd gen TL got flooded right out!! She said the water was up to the windows when she looked out at night! Let me know if anyone need any parts! lol
not sure if the engine is still good cause she had an a remote starter, so the car might have tried to start when it shorted out cause both of the passenger windows were completely down in the morning!

haha nah I don't need it, I got one on this car. That block heater was from my 3G. Did water get sucked in? If the car was parked I doubt that it would start by itself to suck in water or anything.

I really like all the changes they made to the '05/06 years. Especially the interior with the better bolstered seats as they are a lot comfier then the older ones.

Current plans are pretty simple, gonna get some tint done (15% Rear, 50% front), buy fog lights, do a Projector retrofit with a set of new BMW X5 projectors I have and HIDs, New headunit with bluetooth, and maybe an exhaust/intake. Next year Ill buy some 17s and lowering springs. Also thinking of vinyl wrapping the roof in flat back since my old manager can do it for a good price along with the tint.

In the long run I'd like to get my dad to repaint the front end as its pretty chipped up and get it 3m'd, but we'll see. For now I'm just gonna enjoy having a nice, newer car (newest I've owned) that can fit in with my friends a lot better then my "Pink" CL.

Nice stance Jeff! Interesting choice of color on the wheels. Planning to do a black and green theme for the exterior?
