i got a kid that works with me that has a acura tl. one of the newer ones. its an auto with the sport shifter. 2.3l i believe with about 280ish hp and 230ish tq. what do you think about him vs my cobalt ls with 2.5 full exhaust and an 85 shot. b&m shift plus. 2.4 mani swap, and an injen intake. and no im not running on stock continentals...lol. he has no mods except for a set of heavier rims. lol.

i thik it'll be a nice race.

85 shot?
no forged internals?
hell...you'll beat him, once.
lmao. jk, i dunno bout that one.

lil_kano

as long as i have my window switch and have set to safe perameters its safe. i have other safety mods. but i just listed the performace ones.

I just looked at the specs and did some quick calculations. (Quick, not accurate lol) It looks like you should have him, if you're using an 85 shot. That being said, right now its just paper racing, so it doesn't mean much. And secondly, you'll be pushing it with a shot that big.

Ehh, just do it and post up.

CinciSS07

go for it! let us know how it turns out

lil_kano

i will. i if could get a camera i would take a vid. but my digital camera sucks ass.

i know i'l be fine with the shot. its not that big of a difference than a 75. i just want to know if they got any ballz behing thier name. lol. i mean its still a honda...

XM15

I drove in one with a kid from my school and I can say, its no slouch.

lil_kano

i still have a gut feeling i can take 'em.....or that might be that burrito i had earlier... I have a lotta tq. im about to get a dash hawk so im going to see what i can find out from that. all in all i just like having fun. and being safe....

g5mike

just ask the mod DC he has one!

trent_ky

I think he will take you personally those are quick cars...they will even give a stock ss a run for its money...you have a quarter mile time?

lil_kano

seriously? its not the type s.... they look heavy too. i haven't been to the track yet.

IonNinja

your car should be good for mid-low 14's with those mods...I don't see an RL non Type S being anywhere close to you.

lil_kano

this is why i like ion ninja...in a very manly way....lol. +rep.

Smitty1017

lol cause he inadvertantly rubbed your e-gooch?

lil_kano

lo. yea.

no im just kidding. f that.

nonSS

if its anything like this local 2.3 acura that i raced he had exhaust intake 5 speed and from a 40 roll he put bout 1.5 cars on me and all i have is the fujita intake and driver mod. but when we went from a dig i had 2 cars on him till 90 mph which is when i let off so if you can drive run from a dig and youl smoke him bad.

trent_ky

Im pretty sure the o.p. meant 3.2 not 2.3...i believe all tls from at least 2000 m.y. on are 3.2 besides the 2007+ type s which is a 3.5

nonSS

that makes a big diff but run from a dig bc no stockish honda has tq and they suck out of the hole

lil_kano

nice. like i said too hes a semi-auto with absolutely no mods except for rims that look heavier than stock ones. so i think i have pretty good chance. oh and deff not a type s

nonSS

the question is can you launch your car hard with out spining to bad and if you can you will put buses on him from a dig and if he does catch you it will take a while at that rate

lil_kano

not a problem. i highly doubt he'll catch me too. almost to nothing if anything.
