well i wanted to no your actual results and after your upgrades

 

[mobomelter]

i don't have one of those cool computer thingies or a stop watch. if i did i'd tell you what a stock time is on the actual road. (posted times are probably from a dyno)

 

[mp5jeff]

if it's 7.5 stock then with a intake and catback id say 7.3...lol

I added my backpack and some school books and my big butt, im estimating my 0-60 is around 14 seconds with a 20 second quarter mile.

I've seen Car&Driver claim 7.4 0-60, other mags say 8.0, but that must be for the automatic (piss)

My SP23 car runs 100 Octane BP and has a K&N Air Filter. The car is noticeably quicker and more responsive than standard. Most testers in OZ claim that 0-100kph (62mph) is around 8.3 seconds.....mine IS definitely quicker than that and is also more responsive than my other car (wife's) 6Speed manual Honda Accord Euro [..your Acura TSX](again K&N filter an 100 Octane) Especially quicker down low where torque and gearing count. The Honda is definitely quicker at higher speeds when the iVTEC is working. RED SP23

 

[mobomelter]

isn't 100 octane racing fuel? why are you running that through a stock engine?

 

[SP23goesroar]

is knight rider on anymore?

 

[mobomelter]

is knight rider on anymore?

no but the first season is on dvd.

Most reviews will also tell you the 3 sprints to 60 quicker than the TSX. And you should be careful running 100 octane through your engine, it's possible that something bad could come from that, so I've heard.

 

[RED SP23]

Sorry..98 octane BP Fuel not 100 octane..I was thinking of my Shell A Racing Fuel I used on my Torana XU1 (32 years ago). BP have 98 octane as Premium unleaded fuel. No problems at all but it sure works. RED SP23

 

[RED SP23]

In OZ the best time posted in car magazines os to 0-100kph (62mph) for the SP23 in 8.3 seconds and the same magazines give a manual Honda Accord Euro (TSX) as 7.8 seconds, half a second is quite a distance at 100 clicks. I own both and both are quicker than standard using the 98 octane and the K&N filter. RED SP23

 

[mobomelter]

ok just checking about the 100 octane. thought that was a little wierd.

 

[RED SP23]

Ah... I love the smell of Shell A Racing Fuel in the morning. What a wonderful smell! RED SP23

Wow BP has 98 octane? I remember when my town use to have a BP, but I havent seen them up north in years.
