Hi! I just registered and am a new user. I have a 2005 Supercharged Acura TL that I autocross regularly. Here is a pic of it...

What's your susp set up like? I just dropped my 05 on H&R's coilover kit, want to get their rear sway bar among other things next.

Have you dyno'd your car?

I am running a custom one off radiator and fan set that I had made for the car.

I am running an A-Spec suspension and Comptech Sway bar...and thats it. Works pretty well for me.

Yes...I dyno'd my car a long time ago and it ran at 307WHP with 241TQ with no real tune on it.

Nice #'s, what was done other than the SC to get those #'s. What psi also.

Sweet for auto-xing a TL.

Re: (Dr. D-Series)

I was running around 4-5 psi to get those numbers...that was before the high boost pulley I am running now.

Yes....I autocross this TL all the time. I am the co-chair for our local SCCA region autocross program.

Sweet setup and ride! Welcome to the site.
I hook up the HART Racing team with their decals and graphics. They're into autocross and drag racing. Maybe you've run across (or over) them sometime?

Haha thats funny.

I just installed a kit on a friends 04 tl manual.
With the stock pulley it pulls 3.5-4 psi. He got the upgraded 6 psi pulley on now, but as soon as i sees 3rd or 4th gear it rockets to 9-10 psi. And soon enough it throws some misfire codes haha.

Keep the post updated on how the Emange works out.

Trap speeds are usually at about 100mph or 99.8 or so.....times are nothing to write home about just yet at 13.4 - 13.9's depending on how heat soaked it is. Once its heat soaked....you can count on nuttin but 14 - 15's...lol.
