FI = forced induction

I have the TL-S rear bar on right now, with the stock front. Balances out the steering with a touch of oversteer.

Go to an Acura dealer and order these parts:

52306-SEP-A11 Rear Bushing (you need 2)
52300-SEP-A11 Rear Stabilizer aka Sway Bar (you need 1)
52308-S3M-A00 Rear bushing Bracket (you need 2)

And if you shear a bolt during the install:
93402-08016-08 BOLT-WASHER (8X16) (you need 4 for a brand new install)

And if you cant get the links off like me and need new ones:
52325-S84-A01 Left Stabilizer Link
52320-S84-A01 Right Stabilizer Link

They might cost you a penny though... I had to pay $110 for mine at the dealer, but theyre listed at $30/ea online for OEM ones.

A few things: Brandon, FWD can-t oversteer.

Nitrous is a lot cheaper than turbo or SC ..... do it right though. Bottle heater, blanket, high pressure control for heater, purge, window + WOT activation and a wet system.

If you have nitrous, get a header. It will keep the exhaust temps down since there is more of a buffer zone between the main exhaust stream and the metal pipe, plus the greater expansion of the exhaust will cause a little cooling due to the pressure/ temp relationship of gasses.

I think before you do any more car mods. You need to do some driver mods.

I'm referring to you fully understanding what each thing does before you just decide to buy it and throw it on your car.
