28 Dec A TL But Make It a Civic

What if you treated a TL like a Civic hatchback?
By Aaron Gaghagen and Brian Gillespie

The Acura TL is a luxury car, but did you ever wonder what it’d be like as a track car? What if you modified a TL as if it were a sixth gen Civic hatchback? On the plus side, there a great suspension with wheel wells that can swallow a good amount of tire. Oh and then there’s the power plant. The 3.2 liter J series pumps out 270 horsepower on our base model TL which helps it scoot quite nicely. We begin work on Project TL with suspension from Tein, Progress Technology and Tru Hart to compliment our Konig Wheels wrapped in Federal tires.
