You get more of the pops/bangs while driving in Sport+ mode. And you def hear more suction on the intake with it as well. I hear you get a real sound change when you do the downpipe.
Thank you! I definitely appreciate the kind words. Is your commute in a bunch of traffic? I’d definitely get one if you can. I absolutely love the car. Saludos tambien de Chicago!
@@elvincastro9479 oh man! That is a massive commute to make happen weekly. I can see why you wouldn’t get one. I wouldn’t want to put all those miles on it. I have friends that live in Dallas and El Paso.
@@TampaDE5 I’m not sure what the stock one weighs, but I’d be surprised if the carbon version weighed over 2 pounds. It’s literally like holding a piece of paper from how light it is. The FK8 intake isn’t compatible with the DE5, only the FL5 version is.
I have an o8 TL type S 6 speed and I’m thinking of getting the integra type s or a Lexus ISF 500 since they are priced similar but is the integra worth the big markup dealerships are charging for them?
Those older TL Type-S are beautiful. They still look sooo good till this day. I personally believe the Acura down the road will hold value better over the Lexus. I paid 5K over for mine, but I also got it in July of 2023 (while prices were crazy). If you can find one at MSRP (which people have), I would certainly get an Integra Type-S. They’re so much fun to drive.
@@RiveraRevolutions yeah they look so good and that’s why I like them over the type R more because they look aggressive and I do love The 3rd gen TL look but it is an old car.
@@E85_STI it may be old, but it’s still so beautiful. I’d love a Civic Type-R, but not as a daily. The front seat is pretty aggressive, and I owned the FK8, so I only drove it on weekends. If you can snap one for true MSRP, go after it
@@RiveraRevolutions thanks for that advice and it would be a daily so yeah the integra would be better and you are right the TL still drives great and power everything leather seats but the integra looks so good though lol I want to see what else you do to it I subscribed
Two long months of waiting paid off! Let’s keep adding more carbon to this engine bay!
Excellent content, as always. Front strut bar FTW!
Thank you! The strut bar turned out to be a nice little touch.
The carbon is coming out nice! Good job bro 👌🏾
Thanks bro! I was trying to kept it at a minimum lol. I gotta find some other engine dress up bits
@@RiveraRevolutions keep it up man!
@@NastyAddictionGarage definitely will!
Man you're doing basically all the mods I wanna do 😭, love these videos thanks for making em.
Have you purchased any mods? Thank you for tuning into the videos! At the very least, when you get yours, you will know how they go on lol.
Nice build so far
Thank you! Appreciate that!
any sound difference with the inlet pipe upgrade?
You get more of the pops/bangs while driving in Sport+ mode. And you def hear more suction on the intake with it as well. I hear you get a real sound change when you do the downpipe.
Sick af bro.
Thanks bro! Almost done with all the mods.
Good content brother looking to get one also but don’t know if my commute allows me to have a fun car. Saludos Wepa!

My commute is 580 highway miles every week😢but still considering any way 😂Saludos desde Texas.

Thanks brotha!
What do you think the weight saving is? Also is the the FK8 part that is just compatible with DE5?

@@E85_STI I appreciate that! That TL will go down as one of Acura best cars. If you go drive an Integra Type-S, you will leave the dealer with it lol
Should come and take the car out to Joliet autobahn. Next track sprint is June 9 and August 8th.
I would love to track it one day, but when I have don’t have to use this one as a daily lol
@@RiveraRevolutions so far I’ve only meet two ITS owners. Are you going to the hondata Jail break event in wood dale?
@@cedricenter when is that event? I was going to send mine out beginning of June.
@@RiveraRevolutions it’s June 15th on Saturday
@@cedricenter I may have to show up if I can get my ECU unlocked in a couple hours. Will you be there?
