Only true on the '04...theres rumors of the '05 TL A Spec coming with a different exhaust raising the HP to 300

EDIT: heres some proof...http://www.hondanews.com/CatID...e=asc

You can always go with the 300hp all wheel drive RL that's coming out. But I have always loved the new TL body. The graphite color is my fave.

Quote from a reliable source... acura.com...no horsepower in there...the upgrades do sound very good though.

The Acura A-SPEC kit is a complete dealer installed accessory package that addresses the demands of performance enthusiasts by providing enhanced handling, aggressive looks, quality and durability. The Acura TL A-SPEC kit includes a suspension package, 18-inch alloy wheels, high-performance brake pads for the automatic transmission model, an aero kit and a sport steering wheel.

The suspension package features track-tuned shocks and springs that lower the car approximately one inch.

The A-SPEC kit also includes 18-inch alloy wheels, which are shod with high performance AVS ES100 235/40VR18 95W Yokohama tires designed specifically for the TL A-SPEC kit.

While the 2005 TL with 6-speed manual transmission features powerful 4-piston BremboŽ front brakes, the A-SPEC kit for automatic transmission-equipped models includes high-performance brake pads.

The package also comes equipped with an aero kit that includes either a deck lid or rear wing spoiler.

To learn more, please contact your Acura dealer.
