    Cl has a nice top end who couldn't figure it out since it's a v6.

    Not as long as u turboed it.
    The F series has stronger sleeve than the h22.
    As a matter of fact, it will be faster and cheaper turboing the F insted of doing H swap.

    Remember Ryan I gave you like 5 car lengths and still walked you. So that means to me cl-s are slow.;

    Compaired to your car, they are slow as shit. No need to hate for no reason. I just thought it was a cool video for people to enjoy. If it's so slow, then how exactly did it beat that STi? You don't know it's stock. I don't know either of the people in that video, so I can't stand up for either car.

    I'm not exactly sure why you feel like you must defend tha Subaru's. It wasn't any kind of an attack on you or STi's in general. We all know STi's are fast as shit. And they're way faster than any Acura could ever aspire to be.

    When did we ever race, Tray? That night when I first got the car? I was just taking Val for a ride, and you wanted to play.

    I honestly don't remember trying to race you. But you're entitled to your own opinion. So I'm not going to try to argue your opinion.


    No hating on you or calling out intended, Tray. I was just trying to defend myself.

    Oh well. I quit everything. This sucks.

    By the way... Where in that post did I ever claim the car to be mine? There's no possible way that's mine. My CL-S is bright red. That one is Silver. Not a chance it's my car. So chill out. Once again, not like I ever claimed it to be my fucking car.

    Nah. Mine's the 5 speed auto-magic. (Tip tronic)

    Only the '03s had the option to have a 6-speed. '01-'02 were only auto-magics.

    I know the six speeds were kinda slow off the line, but I know they have pretty decent pick up after that. Would you ever consider swapping in the 6spd from an 03?

    Mine honestly didn't feel ANY different at all after they replaced the transmission. May be you guys just don't treat the CL rough enough. haha.

    Sorry. I didn't mean to be so abrasive. I've not been through the best times lately, and too stressed out over too much stuff. Sorry about that.

    When do you want to run, and what MPH?

    I treat it plenty rough (when Im allowed to drive it) however my 94 accord feels much quicker. Maybe for some reason the dealership left your original auto ecu in there. If so, you were lucky. I asked for the original but they said it had to be replaced under the orders of the recall. Hopefully this transmission will hold up just until about 95k and die again so we can get it replaced before the extended warranty is up.
