I went over some modifications I recommend everyone to start off with when first getting your Acura TL, or if you've had it for a while and you want to start modding it now.
Nice video but you totally forgot about the camber kit... you'll need that to keep those tires from wearing out on the inside... and don't depend on your coilovers for fixing that negative camber. While you may get away with toe you definitely need A-arms up front and some rear upper camber arms for the back. Rear toe arms again will depend on your coilovers (springs, dampening, rim size). Don't make the same mistake the previous owner of my 06 TL did.. threw lowering springs, 20in rims, and no camber kit. Car rode like hell and he ate tires up every 2 months. That's why he sold the car (good for me because I got a great deal and made my money back by selling those ugly 20's)
Great cars absolutely love my aspec manual 20 inch vossens my baby 10 yrs of ownership very little to fix unreal reliability!! Then I went off the hook bought one if not the best sedan ever built Audi rs4 b7 mmmmmm legendary sedans one affordable one mind boggling expensive to maintain but next level car
@DrivenCars That's because Your a smart kid :-) keep that TL forever bro I know I deff am !!! Summer sunny days only for those 2 cars 🚗 special machines!! 2012 Acura tsx for those shit ass days and winter
I'm building my 04 tl. First thing is on Wednesday I send it to rebuild the transmission! Excited about that! 2700 for everything and paid 1200 for the car kuz transmission was bad.. its sitting on some ugly 20 inch rims and want to replace with stock for now and need to replace the front black seats and window and regulator and motor for driver side window
Be careful putting in the cold air intake make sure u don’t drive ur car in water if it’s low cuz there goes ur engine never happened to me but I also never thought I’d have to drive around water in cali
Nice Acura brother I'm fixing mine too but I'm trying to paint it black, yet I'm not sure if I should get it solid black or Metallic? I've never seen a metallic black Tl
That's because the stock setup already draws cold air from the outside. You could just drop in a high flow air filter and call it a day. Aftermarket CAIs provide esthetics and the sound.
@@DrivenCarss ijus picked up my type S a few Weeks ago, It came with rims but they look to big to me . So I’m looking for some Decent ones not to small nor big, Im also forsure getting the aem Intake and j pipe mods in due time when I’m off work Nice videos thanks for the reply 🤝🏽
@@DrivenCarss one more thing this is going to be my first car that I’m going to mod you think is a good first car to get if not do you have any suggestions?
Aem intake is no different from a 45 dollar intake. If it’s a 3 inch pipe it’s a three in pipe brand doesn’t change that what will make the difference is the filter brand. Buy cheap 45$ intake that’s shaped the same way going down towards the fog light and then buy a k & n filter or green filter and you got the same sh** all you’re paying for for aem and ingen intakes basically is the filter and it being California legal
semi true actually, some cars that have MAF sensors that are in the intake tubing and if the sensor is too far or too close to the throttle body it will cause the check engine light to come on.
@@DrivenCarss that’s why I said find one same shaped. They just pull dimensions of the wiring harness and intakes then cut em. Companies will buy one aem one to replicate it the exact same way and sell it a quarter the price with a cheaper filter just replace the filter with a better one. My 45$ intake is the same size and exact fit if not better because it reaches to my fog light and I deleted it to have a perfect air duct for it (not saying nothing negative I’d like to have an aem intake I just don’t got 300$ for it but for people need an equal alternative a cheap intake for 45$ and then buy the filter separate for 30$ is just a cheaper route that’s works just as well)
@@DrivenCarss not saying you’re wrong some are made poorly and the designs for it are wrong or what they call “universal” after some tweaking but that’s why you check reviews before buy cheap lol
