Just think, you can add 3%-10% more volume of air through a larger diameter throttle-body, it really is that simple. I've always known the J37A and J37A4 are quality Honda builds, from factory. Next step would be to bore out that intake manifold for the supercharger, and bore out that throttle-adapter-plate, so that it's not constricted by the taper, because you'd be removing the taper and using the adapter plate, as the new mount, for the intake-manifold. Less vacuum leak too, that way. Wait to dyno test, AFTER the plate and intake is bored out to the thickness of the J37A throttlebody.
Love the content bro ❤️ but in the tl community matte black is a color that doesn’t really go with the tl try a nice blue or red , make this car look loud like that supercharger ❤️❤️❤️
Exactly! I had it all planned out it’s about the only time I ever planned anything on this build lol 😂 but yea I didn’t know how many times I said it until I edited lol 😂
Yea for sure! It definitely likes it with the mods now but definitely needs a proper retune to really take advantage because it seems to have lost a little power in some spots but also seems to have gained on top end.
@@spankthemonkey3437 I agree with James. What you're saying would be true for a naturally aspirated setup, but James has a roots style supercharger. They make tons of low end torque and absolutely benefit from as little restriction as possible.
@@chrishernandez2490 I wasn't disagreeing with anything he said just gave a possible reason why it might have lost on lower end. If the supercharger benefit from a bigger throttle body on top end the smaller one should give a benefit to lower end torque
@@spankthemonkey3437 I think once he tunes it he should see a boost in power on the low end as well. We'll see when he posts the dyno vid, I could be wrong.
I would remove the inlet on the SC and port it out with the spacer . Also the adapter makes a good place for one of your meth nozzles it will cool off the rotors on the M62 .
Yes more power !!! The lighting strike was cool as well I know for sure your at HP numbers are going to 350 I love your TL build man can't wait for the next video keep them coming !!
🔥 cant wait to see the new numbers! What bolt ons are you missing now? I got the obx precats and jpipe for about $500 for both. They usually sell out quick but try to find one
Great build, awesome little tricks that work. You had me up until you said matte black. So overdone dude. Not my car, but I see so many matte black vehicles it makes me wanna cry.
It’s going bed liner matte black not over done haha everyone will hate me but I have autism and love the texture. Ever see a Acura TL with a bedline paint job? I haven’t 🤷🏻♂️😁
@@TexasHondaChannel actually got some work done on mine today as well. Got coilovers raised up some so I'm not dragging and got camber adjusted now ready get to driving it soon hopefully
I just bought this one it’s 4 ply even lol 😂 it will work for now but eventually ima have the entire thing redone with solid pipe so it won’t be a issue with collapsing
@@TexasHondaChannel wow it's already 4 ply that things is sucking some air lol. It's just something I saw when you were testing the new throttle body in the video
yea getting a skunk2 intake manifold and 70mm throttle body. But if you wanna stay stock intake manifold I would get a b18 throttle and port match it. I have video on this channel on how to do it
It’s tapered down and in the video it looks like there is a lip there but in person if you were to see it you would understand. Videos are never the exact thing and camera plays tricks. Feel free to set up a time to come check it out.
Thanks for the upload. Quick quest.... (1) Why don't you bolt up the J37 directly to the Intake manifold? (would that make a big difference) And (2) Where can I get that data logging/tuning program from?
I have another video that explains how to use a Hondata tuning for the 07-08 on a 06 like I am using. I got it off Hondata website. I am supercharged so I can’t bolt directly to the manifold unless I take the supercharger off the car.
So you CAN supercharge throttle by wire J3x engines. I have seen that 1st gen Honda Pilot with the supercharger but that has a cable throttle. Prank Parts doesn't make the adapter plate anymore for the M90 supercharger for J35 engines. I'm about to go back to school for advanced manufacturing. Once I learn how to use a CNC machine, I will be making my own adapter plate for my 2011 Honda Pilot.
That aluminum M90 adapter for the J series is currently for sale on their website right now. Are you saying that this isn't the correct one? That adapter should work on any J-Series engine but I cannot confirm this because the guys at PrankParts won't reply to my emails or phone calls.
@@redlinemotorsports187 at the time of posting this, it was out of stock. Either way, I’ll be making my own once I learn how to properly use CNC machines, my professor is even willing to help me along with other students. I might even go with a different solution I saw,where the whole intake manifold is replaced and the supercharger sits lower in the V of the engine block
@@charminbaer2323Now that sounds like a plan! Let me know if you do this. I think it's insane that they want over $600 for a metal plate. I want to install an M90 on my 2004 Acura MDX that has a drive by wire J35A5.
@@redlinemotorsports187 yeah, my 2011 Pilot is drive by wire too, J35Z4. The older J35's 2 drive belts, a separate one for the power steering. the newer J35's have one serpentine belt, so gotta figure out the position of the supercharger so it lines up with the belt and other pulleys. There's not a lot of info with regards supercharging a J35 with drive by wire out there.
I’m not going that far with this. It’s my daily that gets really good MPG has nice cold a/c and I’m poor AF. If I can’t squeeze anymore out without going internally then it stays where it is. Maybe once I become rich i would do that stuff and put it in a shell of some sort maybe slap it in a Subaru just to make the world mad. I’m good at making people mad apparently lol
@@TexasHondaChannel making people mad is fun. I’m poor too. Just picked up an 04 TL. Before any power mods I’m going through engine mounts, bushings, brakes, transmission. Etc I’d love to have a garage to actually work on it
@@tylerbuchanan6822 thanks and I appreciate you. Trust me spent many many years without a garage and it sucked so bad I feel like a spoiled brat with this garage. Some times I work outside in the elements just to never forget how good I have it now.

This is amazing. I don’t think there is a single channel that is doing it like this. Step by step with dyno numbers to show progress
I try to do the best I can. I can’t always get a Dyno after each and ever mod but I sure try too.
Got a j37 upper intake and throttle body and ported and polished lower intake runners on my 09 odyssey.

You provide many information for a J series builds

I can easily see this channel going to 100k subs, keep it up man, now I wanna buy a TL lol
Thanks and that would be cool to have 100k subscribers but more important to me is helping and reaching people.
I have that exact Comptech supercharger kit and can't wait to install it!!
I want to find one and try it on a new MDX
Love the content bro ❤️ but in the tl community matte black is a color that doesn’t really go with the tl try a nice blue or red , make this car look loud like that supercharger ❤️❤️❤️
Already have all the stuff for matte black and it’s not your normal paint job it will make sense eventually lol
Good progress. Your low end torque must have improved. Waiting for dyno.
Great video bro, you "crammed" alot of great info into it 👍🤣 seriously though thanks for the video she's coming along nicely.
I didn’t realize until editing that I said it that many times lol
Finally you installed the j37. Lol. Can’t wait to see the numbers increase.
For sure definitely gonna need a proper retune to get the full benefits
Lol love the cram counter! That elbow should make a huge difference in airflow over that restrictive adapter!
Exactly! I had it all planned out it’s about the only time I ever planned anything on this build lol 😂 but yea I didn’t know how many times I said it until I edited lol 😂
Man, that throttle body and massive intake tube/filter looks like a killer combo! Im sure that blower is very happy now!
Yea for sure! It definitely likes it with the mods now but definitely needs a proper retune to really take advantage because it seems to have lost a little power in some spots but also seems to have gained on top end.

That rain was a killer it made my belt slip and blow my water pump and power steering it even cracked a pulley out on ave b when it flooded

doing a great job. Keep the videos coming.
Thank you 🙏🏻 will do my best

I am gonna do the pre cat deletes then it’s ready for a retune to get the most out of it.
looks good mate
Thank you 🙏🏻
Your an inspiration!! Can’t wait to see it on 8 pounds
Same here!
What's the boost limits of the blower setup? If it's capable of more pressure then after the methanol it'd be much safer to turn up.
It’s usually around 8-9psi max on the m62
Air in.....air out=horsepower😉
Seeing your videos makes me miss my car but also making me want a tl. Great job james

You may want to look into a stiffer pipe from s/c to intake it collapses alot at under vacuum
