Thanks, ya it is a ugly ass motor especially compared to my s2k. I have a few small plans hopefully going to do this week. Im gonna keep people at bay though because everytime I make plans and dream parts lists it never works out.

Id Lower it and throw some type s wheels on it.

Thank you sir, I like these wheels that are on it. Not sure if I will change them.

Ya def should have went the TL route, I have never got anything lower than 24mpgs on a tank and I average around 26-28.

Favorite newer honda. The interiors are amazing as are the drive trains.

are there any major hp mods out there? I really haven't paid attention much to the TL.

Well they have the basics like headers, j-pipe,cat,cat back exhaust, intake, tb spacer, and underdrive pulley. Then comptech makes a supercharger and J&R sells a turbo kit. Gains for the ct supercharger are like 60-65whp from what ive read. Not sure on the turbo

edit: found the j&r turbo kit dyno...
