soloStudios specializes in import-make ground effects & special in-house-developed engine internals.
With a perfect balance of speed and style, soloStudios aims to please.
The introduction of the 2005 Acura RL revolutionized what was possible with the image of a sporty, flagship luxury tourer.
Now soloStudios brings to you their own image of this reworked model.
Starting off with work under the hood; lightened camshafts, forged pistons, forged block, optimized 1-piece manifold/catback/cat exhaust system, and a revised FI/TQ CRV/VTEC-timing brought from a new ECU increase the power from the base 300hp to a heart-pounding 375hp,376lb/ft-tq.
..but sS has not stopped there. Integrating a Supercharger borrowed from Comptech Racing, the unusual has occured.
Luxury has merged with sport.
375hp,376lb/ft-tq. boosted to 429hp,411lb/ft-tq.
Wheels have been changed with a one-off 19" soloStudios design, coupled to Pirelli P-Zero Z-rated tires.
Front fascia & side skirts have been re-designed to conform to Super-Sport standards, as well as seamlessly providing airflow to the huge front-mounted intercooler, which hints at the Comptech unit within.
Not stopping there, a subtle rear spoiler has been added, to help increase that severely needed downforce.
Honda's SH-AWD computer-controlled-differential has been re-programmed.
In essence, a logical 70% of avaliable torque to the rear individual wheels has now been boosted to 85%. All-time AWD has been adjusted. Front-torque Bias has been changed to a constant 40%, with the rear solid at 60%. Diff-internals at both front and rear have been re-manufactured in hardened titanium, to handle the now increased load better.
- to critique my own drawing, i'd say the length of the car is too long, and the placement of the start of the front passenger window is too forward. also, it appears i've chopped half of the rear fender off of existence. oh, and the rear spoiler is crap.
