FAQ
Q: Will this fit my 2009+ TSX?
A: No, this kit is designed specifically for 2004-2008 TSX (1st generation). The 2009+ is a different generation with different engine bay layout.
Q: What areas does this kit cover?
A: This 64-piece kit covers valve cover, intake manifold, engine mounts, and other visible engine bay fasteners. See installation guide for complete coverage.
Q: Is titanium strong enough for engine applications?
A: Yes! Grade 5 titanium (6AL-4V) has exceptional tensile strength and is used in professional racing. It's stronger than most steel fasteners while being much lighter.
Q: Do I need anti-seize with titanium?
A: No, titanium naturally resists galling and seizing. Anti-seize is not required.
Q: What color options are available?
A: Typically natural titanium (silver/grey) or anodized colors (gold, blue, purple, etc.). Check product variants for available colors.
Q: Will this reduce weight?
A: Yes, titanium is 40-50% lighter than steel. While the total weight savings is modest (under 1 lb), it's unsprung weight in the engine bay.
Q: Can I install this myself?
A: Yes, if you're comfortable working in the engine bay. Replace fasteners one section at a time and use a torque wrench with the included specifications.
Q: Is this worth it for a daily driver?
A: If you value show car aesthetics, weight reduction, and corrosion resistance, yes. Titanium hardware is a premium upgrade popular with enthusiasts and show cars.
