save your $$ from Intake header and exhaust, get flash pro and 07-08 ECU, you be able to tune the car better to your liking and it will support these future mods that u have planned. really depends on what ur trying to accomplish with the tsx do you want looks or power.if you wanna open it up and you buying performance parts just get flash pro first/

I wouldn't say skip. I would just say to change the order in which your purchasing everything. Because with out the tuner your parts will do little for you.

Few days ago i was rear ended so i had to replace the bumper and stop light. i decided to go with OEM quality bumper. rear oem bumper= 350 , paint the bumper = 200, rear stop light = 77. Installing UR pulleys , Fog lights , sway bar = 300 , buffing and polishing = 100$ . all that cost me $1027, insurance estimated damage worth = $1260 if i went with their approved shops.

now im looking to purchase good coilovers still not sure which to get looking for luxury but at the same time to be able to handle. Budget up to 2000$. Also talking to XLR8 for valvtrain upgrade including street type camshaft.

Sorry dont know how to properly post a youtube video .
UR Pulleys on 05 acura tsx - YouTube
The UR Pulleys do make slight difference , when i picked up one of the UR Pulleys it was maybe 2.5 times lighter than OEM parts, i notice faster rpm response , ;)

.... Now im Waiting on RRC manifold , valve train + Brian Crower Stage 2 Camshaft. Skunk2 Pro-Series Camber Kit - Front, Ingalls Alignment Kit, and TEIN Dampers - Comfort Sport.

Heres update. Heeltoe called me and said the Dual titanium exhaust J's racing no longer makes. So im looking at alternatives i still like titanium exhaust. I Ordered Hybrid Racing Timing chain sensor, because my car was making clicking noise.. Finally got the Competition Clutch State 4 , and CC 11.5lb Flywheel . I missed my ups delivery for my carbon lsd :( and thmotors are slow at getting a reshipment.

Quick Update finally doing Transmission swap. Going from automatic to 6 speed manual with 1-5 Si gears and 6th is stock. LSD quaife came today , 8 lb flywheel , CC stage 4 clutch. I also learned that i need to swap more parts. had to get manual driveshafts sense they are different size than the automatic ones. so i bought 4.9 driveshaft for 500$ together, manual tsx front crossmember. So far only the tranny is pulled, im sending the flywheel to be refreshened sense it was used. heres some pics
