I forgot to mention the lightweight pulley, and P2R does offer fully built heads. He dynoed 350whp on his 6SPD AT💪! Also, you can mod in any order you want according to your budget and preference. Hope you enjoy, lots more to come!
I have an auto and i am still debating on should i add performance parts. Love this car just wish it was a manual.
P2R has the auto and he turned it into a beast💪
Have you installed a 2.25 "diameter pipe instead of a catalytic converter?
@@tomaszwiktorowicz6108 I installed xlr8 jpipe v2 which replaces cat 2.25" primaries to 2.75" exit

Beautiful car, especially in black. The 4th gen has really aged gracefully. She is a keeper!
Good video 🔥🔥🔥 you know weight savings/ track times for sure 😎.
planning to keep my 3.5 auto stock but you are right,a good set of wheels will do good.My oem arent in great shape anyways,gonna keep them for winter.
I just love my 2012 Acura tl fwd it drive smood like the way I fly 5 time on plane it's sailing in boat and thanks for the reply about the spacers and have a happy 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊 new year 2022 keep the content coming and bless up bro
Keep up the videos bro, it helps me a lot thank you 🙏
Glad it's helping🤙!
Lightweight wheels are an absolute must!
Thanks , much appreciated love all the videos.
No problem, thank you for the support!👊
Bro, love it. You're giving me some good ideas... Just started the process of purchasing a 2012 SH-AWD, shipping in from Southern Cali, SO STOKED!
That's awesome man, congrats on the purchase!👊 Welcome to the 4g community!
@@RevsALot Thanks man. '12 SH-AWD advance package, definitely mixed emotions about the automatic- I started with a '92 Integra, went to a '08 TSX, both manuals. I guess shifting 13 gears at work all day it'll be alright not shifting the TL lol
I have a full custom catback with flow master mufflers and the takeda intake the sound in incredible. I get compliments anywhere I go
Pcds will change that nice sound to intense rasp haha.
Would you be able to post an exhaust clip i was thinking of putting on flowmasters
@@justins5714 yeah bro for sure
@@justins5714 hey buddy, video’s up on my channel
Quad tips looks aggressive 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 thanks for the reply about the spacers
I dont always look for your videos but i do watch them all
I appreciate the support 👊!
Thanx for the help.💨💨💨
I can vouch for the Progress RSB. It's on it's tightest "setting" and I absolutely love it. Wish they made a front set as well... Just know it's a permanent mod. You (or in my case a good shop) have to do some very minor drilling to widen the subframe mounts. Can't go back to the oem rsb (not that you'd ever want to). My shop says it's a solid mod 👌
Good to know, cause I thought it was just a bolt on fit.👍 I'll still be adding it to the mod list after coils though.
@@RevsALot as long as a reliable shop that's familiar does the work, you can't go wrong. **also make sure it's the 22mm rsb from Progress. That one's safe to beat up👍. The old 24mm was tearing subframes👎👎.
Dang I was gonna make a video 5 performance mod for tl LOL great vid
Thanks! Do it, I'm sure there's lots of 3rd gen owners that don't watch my channel lol. 🤙
@@RevsALot fellow 3rd gen 6MT owner and I love your content bro

Good Info thanks
Very detailed 👌👍
Thanks!👊
so stoked for the video! I just picked up a white 2014 tl SH AWD 3.7 and I'm so excited to start the mods in the coming months! JDM fo life!
Nice! Congrats with the purchase it's a great vehicle, and even better once modded🤙
me personally like the 2010/12 RL SH wheels on 4th gen TL SH

Waddup brother 🙌🙌 Dope video
Thanks man👊!
Great video, I just bought the manual one and I noticed that the breaks seem to get real squishy when I press fairly hard on them so if you know what that could be please feel free to enlighten me. Btw you've got another subscriber 😁
That's awesome man, congrats on the rare find!🤝 The OEM brakes on these are horrible, I do my best to use them as least as possible. Thanks for the support!👊
Still want to know how you set up your Acura screen saver keep the contents comingl bro and all the best for 2022😎 😊
ruclips.net/video/eAKtdjD-xrQ/видео.html this video has it somewhere in there👍
Thanks for the link bro! I drove another Fwd TL like mine with no mods and it was faster, then I realized the tires were different but same rims. Forgot to check the exact size or type. Do lower profile tires add to acceleration or was it summer tires? I use all seasons. If I didn’t change my rims what tires would give the best 0-60 and roll race?
Tires won't make much a difference unless you're losing traction, but a lower profile should be lighter since there's less rubber.
Lightweight wheels! The number 1 upgrade for the intelligent driver.
Agreed, but they are expensive
Depends on the brand I got mine taxes included(15%) under $1200 CAD for all 4.
I have a auto sh awd TL just had a motor swap for my supercharger kit to be installed during may 😊😊
Ou nice! I can't wait to get mine🤙.
Congrats
How much was that?

@RevsALot I have a 14' Black TL. Got a res delete - love the new sound. Considering swapping OEM mufflers with the Borla Pro XS's that fit the car. Would cost $200 + installation. Thoughts on how much it would impact exhaust note/sound? Anything else you would recommend exhaust-wise? Thx!
ruclips.net/video/A-xkDk4jx70/видео.html this is No Resonators, with borla pro xs, and xlr8 jpipe...closest idea I can give you
I have a '14 as well and my current setup is no res at all and the pro xs mufflers. I can say it adds a deeper note (not crazy loud)and removed the rasp from my straight pipe before
I am 16 about to turn 17 and by next summer as my first car I want a 2013 TL ima have to work my ass off but 😭 hopefully it’s all worth it I want as much HP as I can get for I can compete with my boys and this video helped a lot
That'd be an amazing first car for sure! Depends what your boys have, it can definitely compete with the beat of em, especially once modded.
@@RevsALot well 😭 my boys have a Audi A6 Honda accord V6 and infinity g37x I think the TL couple mods could beat them cars
Yah this is on par with those, especially if you can snatch up the 6MT. Keep in mind the 6AT at 120mph autoshifts to 6th.
Good content, the only mod I would like is removing the speed limiter of 120mph on the 2014 TL with automatic. What's funny I can't find a single car review magazine or online article stating the 12-14 Acura TL with automatic top speed is 120 mph. I always see 125 to 130 plus mph. I'm starting to wonder if these mainstream car reviews work with car manufacturers in some capacity. Alot of people say lexus is so boring. I can say you won't find a single Lexus sports sedan with 120 mph fuel cut off, even the Camry based ES 350. That being said I love my 14 TL shawd the way it drives, everything about it, but limiting it to 120 MPH was not a good thing in my opinion. I know people will say do the speed limit, shouldn't be driving that fast etc etc. That's not the point. Other than that I'm keeping mine for a very long time. Great car.
I think the problem is it auto shifts from 4th to 6th around 120mph, then you can squeeze a few more mph out of it. Sometimes you just gotta open it up for a good adrenaline rush🤙!
@@RevsALot ok I'll use the paddle shifter next time
May consider the light weight wheels. The 19" on mine seems to hold it back on acceleration.
Damn, bigger wheels look better, but 18s not a huge difference when you have coils. That or just get lightweight 19s. I went 18s for cpl lbs. lighter and cpl hundred cheaper for tires and rims.
Which did you guys get ? And what is the weight of the stock wheels?
I believe oem 18s are around 26lbs. I got Fast FC04 18s around 18lbs...Just bought Superspeed RF05rr 19s for the gfs TLX and weigh around 19lbs .
Do you still recommend just a muffler delete with out the borla muffler for the 3.5 autos for the better sound ??
I'm not sure tbh, I haven't heard anything 3.5 TL with the borla pro xs. For cost and sound muffler delete is the way to go.
Lookin at replacing my shocks. Suggestions for performance brands or should I just go oem?
I mean OEM is going to ride the smoothest, but for performance & price I'd get Tein Street Advance or BC BR series.
Get slotted rotors and ceramic-copper brakepads you will be amazed these have unmarked Brembo's stock (2012 MDX here)
Totally forgot to mention brakes haha, definitely going to upgrade once my OEM ones are done for. 👍
I was going to get a Borla muffer for my 2009 3 7 tl. From what you said awhile ago. By just changing the muffers and tips. But now you said it may not be the best, I'm not going to mod my car like yours. So I'm still good on getting the borla muffers just for sound.
P.S. I went to borla site I didn't find anything for 2009 tl on mufflers ?
They're custom mufflers, you need a muffler shop to mount them. Part #40357
Hi, I have an Accord j35z2 and I want an 80mm larger throttle body from the TL. (now the cost of the throttle is 63 mm) I can't find, tell me where you can buy. And what kind of power will come from this?
Probably have to buy a used on ebay from the J37. As for gains I'm not sure, but should be good for a few hp I'd say
Thank you
Alright I hope this isn’t a stupid question. I have a shop down the road that has an awd dino. I’m considering taking it down to have them do the exhaust. Can I have them do a “tune” without getting a ktuner? Do they just flash the ecu with a laptop and it’s good to go? So far I’ve just done a k &n drop in filter. ( plus fixing things the previous owner goofed with. )
No such thing as a stupid question, but no it's not possible. You need a ktuner to tune it.
I literally have so much trouble finding someone with a ktuner. The closest so far is 4 hours away. Lol. I bought ktuner before just to raise my rev limiter and returned it after. Couldn’t disable my speedlimiter or anything even with a catback exhaust and could air intake I couldn’t really do much tune wise
Just buy new, but yah '12-14 TL auto can't remove speed limiter unfortunately👎.
I agree with the muffler comment
Can you just put the wheel spacers on without lowering the 2012fwd TL also thanks for your response regarding the spacers
Yes you can, spacers are just made to stick the tire out more
I like the idea of the super charger I was thinking the same too looking good.
Cool car! I'm interested the Accord Coupe V6 manual. Is this pretty similar?
Depends what year. If you look through my videos I have a cpl races against some Accord 6-6 coupes. Accord is fwd these are awd. So that makes a big difference depends what you want.
Have you ever had a P2647 code rocker arm oil pressure switch/circuit high voltage/VTEC system pop up? My 13 TL SH-AWD 6mt had one , oil was between the hash marks. Added about 500 ml 5w20 synthetic nd it turned off. Just kinda weird. No symptoms besides the check engine. Maybe these cars are hyper sensitive to slightly low oil especially in a cold Alberta climate
Hmm not sure about that, but I know I've never got that code before🤷♂️
@Leo definitely true just happened to me as my oil 😅was at 15%. Code came and went after 5 miles and an oil change. Thought it t was the oil pressure solenoid.
I never go under 30% oil life...now I don't even go under 40% haha
So plastic cover are no good,I also took off mine yesterday.I heard they were holding heat a lot in the engine bay.Can you also answer me about what the hole in front of the battery does since its exposed and might suck water in?
That's one of the reasons I won't being doing that mod, the other is the intake won't be located in same place once I get the supercharger.
@@RevsALot yeah I get that but what does that hole does ?Is it dangerous to leave it expose since normally the plastic cover is kinda hiding it?I also think it looks much better without the plastic cover,the jseries is a damn sexy engine.
@@RevsALot keep up the good work btw,love your videos I always watch them
@@bedd8934 thanks for the support!👊
Can you put wheels spacers on without bigger wheels I await your reply thanks it's a 2012fwd
Yah wheel spacers will just push your tires out more to better align with the fenders. With the TL you would need to roll your fenders if lowered.
How much hp do you think I could get if I do everything you say but on base TL?
Not sure, should be able to gain 50whp or so.
Can you send me a link to where you got your led drl from? and can you tell me how they hold up so far. i need to change mine. that yellow light got to go for me.
I still have OEM DRL..do you mean the switchback? There should be links in description.
ruclips.net/video/lPe3QJtkvZs/видео.html this link has the info and link to what you're looking for
@@RevsALot Oh okay, for some reason I thought they were after market LED. thanks tho
I always turn my lights on cause DRL are yellow halogens, but when you put you're lights on they're HID I believe.
@@RevsALot Exactly, thats the problem i have, i want to switch that. for some reason yours looked white in some video.
Is the front grille wrap or did you have it painted?
Vinyl wrapped it
I’m thinking about buying one
Do it!
Forgot that air suspension seen in Fitment Industries's video at the 9:00 mark -->> So You Want an Acura TL - RUclips
I'd you're into the bagged looked yah, but I would think coilovers would perform better and more reliable. I could be wrong though, I didn't research much into it.
Forgot to say you can get a shave cam you can port your head and get bigger springs and retainers and stuff you can also go E85
Yah P2R offers fully built heads, but little too expensive for me atm. Also, we have no e85 anywhere close by 👎
You know you can get a shave down cam to from slip fab
Nice vid! Btw what’s the year of this TL?
Thanks! It's a 2013...2012-14 will look like this. The 09-11 have a different front grill, wheels, bumper, and tips.
@@RevsALot thanks man I want to get this for my first car next month
That'll be a great first car👌.
Is it worth it to mod a 3.5? Or should I just sell it and try to get the 3.7?
The 3.5 is still a great platform, it's lighter and less drivetrain loss.
Do you think you’ll break into the 12’s ?
Definitely
Yo bro how did you remove the i on the gear lights. Mine shows
I don't know what you mean?
what mods you recommend for the j35?
Same mods as mentioned in this video👍
"Doesnt believe in tuning" haha
I mentioned tuning, if you know how to tune it yourself then that's great. If you don't, you think it makes sense to pay for a tune everytime you add a mod? If you wanna spend extra thousands, go ahead lol.
Hey @RevsALot do you think it’s worth it modifying my 11 accord v6 auto?
A lot of people have told me no it’s not worth it because the 5 auto really takes a lot of power from it but I love the j series
It's up to you, but yah I think a fbo tune 5spd AT would be just as fast maybe a little quicker then a stock 6-6. Also, not sure the 5AT is
very strong to handle a lot of extra power. Best mod would be a manual swap👌.
@@RevsALot that’s the goal wonder if it’s possible
Definitely possible, it's been done before👍
@@RevsALot really? I love my accord v6 only down side about it was the trans😕I’m new to this but I’m j series fanboy I’d love to know what I need for this swap
I want to do certain mods but idk how it will affect the reliability
More power you make the less reliable it becomes, but a few mods won't hurt it too much. It is an Acura/Honda after all🤙
Where is the video for looks at 👀🏎
I'm still waiting for more mods on looks haha.
Good video. I was 100% going to get the XCL8 J pipe. Now I'm not sure. Which one you recommend for performance and longevity?
I would say RV6 has the best quality/performance, seems to be what everyone goes with.
@@RevsALot Thanks man
Np👊
What tires are those exactly and rims
Which ones the OEM or aftermarket Fast FC04 18s with Sport Comp 2
Funny how he says "no one's out there racing their TL's" because I in fact DO race my TL. Every thinks my 0-60 is like 9 seconds and I prove them wrong. Feels nice to have the fastest car in the friend group.
Did I say that? I forget now haha, but yah stock they're not that quick. They wake up really well to mods and hurt lots of feelings🤙. Any car can be a race car with the right mods.
would you say that a 2012 tl is a good first car?
I would say it's an amazing first car, considering mine was a 91 celica that I paid $1000 for haha.
@@RevsALot wow thanks for the reply i was thinking about getting it for a while now and i also really like how your acura looks 🔥🔥
It's a great car, and thank you!👊
Do you have any performance tips on automatic TLs?
All the same as the manual for parts except when it comes to clutch. So, pretty much everything mentioned in this video.
@@RevsALot when you talked about “lightweights wheels” are you talking about like lightweight rims or actual lightweight tires?
@@bestmemes4051 rims
@@RevsALot thx looking forward to start building my 14 TL. Btw what about brakes and suspension?
Brakes and suspension you can check out online. I'd recommend BC Racing and breaks depends on how kuch willing to spend. Big brake kit are best option imo Ceika is one, but they're pricey.
Does it matter which year the TL model is?
No, not really all the same mods apply👌. It'll just be different brands for 3rd gens vs. 4th gens and if it's 3.2, 3.5 or 3.7.
Did you use spray paint the rims?
Yes
@@RevsALot what brand
Where did you sell your old cats for $500?
A guy locally
any one knos wher I can get bodykit for my 2014 TL
They don't make them anymore, so maybe junk yard if you're lucky.
Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeevs!!
What about a catback exhaust?
@@Sleptking994 I mention exhaust
What helps with low wend power?
Lightweight crank pulley, Lightweight flywheel, lightweight wheel. Or supercharger
So you gonna get a tune next?
Once I get ported runners and finish my exhaust setup yah👍
I got an 06 wish I could get some mods
This all applies to 3rd gen as well, except ktuner. I believe you need Hondata
What model do you have?
Tl sh awd 6mt
Throttle body spacers do nothing but make the air spiral you should remove it im jealous of your cat upgrade tho man gotta hmu with link to that also the best mod is prolly octane booster lmao these poor j motors want so much more they are good for 1029hp apparently the transmissions are good for 600-800 if your lucky unfortunately nobody does it
I use octane booster, but just enough to get it from 91 to 93..I plan on reaching the 600hp mark eventually.🤞 Supercharger and nitrous should do it, then if that's not enough I'll go turbo.
@@RevsALot I want to try a 100 shot so badly need to kill a mustang also have you notice if you fill your tank with like damn near only 100 octane the rev limiter just seems to....disappear!!!???? Trying it again soon
Damn, I feel like 100 octane would be hard on the engine without a tune for it...highest we have is 91 at the pump.
@@RevsALotHAHA not even man! These cars need 93+ and 100 Octane is just fine if you can afford it. Its horrible that we cant get more than 91 without mixing. additives are ass overtime too its not ideal. With my cat-back straightpipe the ECU has absolutely no problem with adjusting to it. Not to mention one time I was outta gas at my homies ranch stranded ontop of a mountian so we put a horrible old gallon of 85 octane for the lawnmower in-er and then I really regretted doing that so we put approx 3 gallons of 110 octane dirtbike racing fuel in there to "even it out" BTW this idea totally wasnt influenced by beer ;) well I got amazing gas mileage and the car burbled and popped all the way down the mountian sounded like it had a 20 litre v-12 from a tank or someshit
Haha well I might try some royal purple, but I wouldn't wanna go over 95. I'm hard enough on it, and with the supercharger I'll be blowing it up in no time anyways.
omg how does your dash show 240?????
Yah 240 km lol
