Acura launched the third-generation TL and the first TSX for the 2004 model year, and both stayed in production through 2008. The TL used a 3.2L V6 and the TSX a high-revving 2.4L four-cylinder. Both are drive-by-wire, and Honda calibrated the accelerator for smoothness, which can mute the eager character of these engines.
These are drivers sedans, available with six-speed manuals, and the Sprint Booster complements that. It enlarges the throttle opening for each pedal position, so the TL V6 pulls sooner and the TSX feels more willing below its VTEC crossover. Fuel and ignition remain unchanged.
Owners of the TL Type-S and six-speed TSX often say the car feels a size smaller with the throttle sharpened. Because each mode can be chosen while driving, you can keep a mild Sport step for rush hour and save Race for a mountain road, and the Off setting keeps the car exactly as Acura shipped it whenever you want that.
Plug the unit in at the accelerator pedal using the Honda-matched connectors, then place the selector near the console. Reversible in minutes.
