Default Turbo V6 Acura TL (pictures)







i have more pictures just need to upload them. car made 318whp and 289tq @ 6psi of boost on a dynojet. with slightly leaner air/fuel im sure 325 would be realistic. probably closer to 350whp with a manual tranny instead of the auto thats in there. full boost at pretty much any given RPM. sounds awesome and is a blast to drive. next step is custom 3 inch exhaust and find a solution to the weakness of the auto tranny.

Post some more pics of the outside of the car too..

Set up looks dope, 325whp on tap at all times must make that a fun "daily" driver.

Finally, someone that goes turbo instead of a supercharger. Please keep us posted on how that tranny holds up.

Kind of a stupid question, but is it fun to drive? Have you gotten any WTF looks yet?

thanks guys......yes the car is a BLAST to drive actually. i havnt really taken it out on any roads to get the reaction of any other people. i have a test road that is perfect and nobody is around...so i do most my test driving on that.

the car is cosmetically stock other than being lowered an a tiny apexi exhaust. even the intercooler is hidden.

Everything looks great. Mind me asking what turbocharger you went with? I have a guess but it's just that. A guess

haha thats just holding stuff? out of the way...dont remember exactly.......pretty much everything was in the way the whole time haha. had to relocate what seemed like everything, especially in the back for the rear 3 cyl manifold. the downpipe had to clear 2 fans, front engine mount, cross memeber, oil pan, and god knows what else. i didnt think 3 inch was going to work when i started
