I got a 23 tlx type s and I wanna add a few modes and wanna add a down pipe to it but I’m confused of which options to get the downpipe from IMR and was wondering if you can help to explain it.
@TypeS_Rafa2 ай бұрын
Bro I went fully catless. Going fully catless on the primary downpipe I got a check engine light. So I had to buy the catt thingy for the o2 sensor. My secondary downpipe is basically just a pipe.

Man that exhaust sounds vicious, I just put on flowmaster super 10s on a functionwerk exhaust paired with high flow catts & man the sound unbelievable, but I'd like to know what is your setup
Yes, I haven’t had any real issues with mine that I can blame the factory on. It’s just more maintenance than say if u got something 2 wheel drive.

I have just began dipping my toe in the tuner community and i bought a tlx s to begin that journey, and maybe this is a dumb question, but the wheels like that isnt that more for drag cars type look? Also what did you do to make it sound like that??? Because idc if your in northern Canada thats the exhaust for me. Any of these mods are able to be reset back to factory if uou have to deal with a warranty issue. Sorry last question do you have a cold air intake and if so what enhancements did you see with it?
@TypeS_Rafa3 ай бұрын
Yes it’s a drag car look. It’s just for looks with this car. It being all wheel drive. Exhaust wise all I have is a primary downpipe and secondary cat delete. I’m in Florida. I don’t have a cold air intake I just have a drop in filter. I’m pretty sure it make a bit more power but not something u can feel with that drop in filter that I have from Prl.

Yeah bro… let’s do it. Hit me up on IG. So mirror puddle light… don’t really care those should be replaced under warranty. Same thing with the rotors. Mines haven’t warped I drive my car hard. I’ll look into the wheel hub bearings. I know that there is something going on with the transmission and the transfer case. Remember this is a new platform it’s bound to have some issues

Seems like axles and transmissions are the weak points in these that break. Luckily you didn’t break the transmissions or transfer case. There’s a reason why Acura won’t let them rev past 6k. They know they will break. These are not built as strong as the older ones. This is why most are going to German cars. They are built for abuse and longevity. Times have changed.

Why would you replace it with a used part? $ 180 for a used axle, smh ? If you're gonna beat on it, replace it with new parts or upgraded parts not used parts from the junkyard. If you wanna play, then u gotta pay ! I own a 2023 Acura TLX TYPE S Apex blue, red interior, and sport wheel package.. I don't beat on it
@TypeS_Rafa4 ай бұрын
So let’s start at the top. This is my daily car too. I use this thing for everything. While I do agree that upgrading it or buying a new one would have been a better option. I needed a quick fix. They don’t make upgraded axles for our cars and new one from my dealer was 1 week out. The car being down it would have got very expensive quick between a rental paying a dealer waiting on parts. It’s like plugging a tire vs buying a new one….. it didn’t make sense. That is a nice color combo u got there. I bought this car to enjoy it and push it to its limits which are clearly not very high. Take it to a local auto cross and give it a little push u and the car might like it

These are not performance cars. Acura dialed these back so you can’t modify them faster. Thats why they don’t let them rev past 6k. My friend has one and blew the trans first three months. Luckily dealer replaced it, but they gave him a hard time. He traded it in after they fixed it. It’s a great daily car. Just don’t beat on it and expect it to be reliable. Acura cut back on quality parts due to inflation. German cars is where it’s at for true performance and longevity. Times have changed a lot.

My is350 was a lot of fun to drive but it’s very dated on the inside. Last I checked an equally equipped is350 compared to basically a fully loaded Aspec is about 7k more expensive. My Aspec was front wheel drive. It was ok decently fun to drive. If it was sh-awd it would have probably been better. It doesn’t snow in Miami and I originally got that car for my girlfriend.

You can’t go wrong with either I would probably say tlx because it has more space newer interior and a better value. But get sh-awd. Looks wise they’re both beautiful cars.
