03 Acura CL 6 speed vs. 04-06 Acura TL ??6 speed??
Past sat. morning, a guy across the street from where I live heard me pull of kinda hard, and the CAI suck some air. So when I came back he was like 'wanna run' My face light up. Me thinking, "this new tl is a heavy luxury car, that at best is tiptronic''. We went to the famous 'Francis Lewis Blvd', on the way there we were testing the waters. It was crazy, engines sounded the same, cars didn't pull on each other or nothing. We get to the light, it turns green, I'm gone, perfect take off, then perfect shift 1,2,3... I MISSED FOURTH (DDAANNMM!!!) I was ahead by 1/2 a car lenghth, then he got me after missing. I felt like a rookie!! Going back home I took him at the light,close all the way though. But it still felt bad, i missed a gear. When we got home, he knew I would have had him the first one also, cause we weren't really pulling on each other, i just had a better jump. Looking inside, I noticed it was also a 6 speed. I was like WOW! I didn't know it came stick. He said, it wont allow him to power shift in the TL, its just real smooth he said. But it was still fun, didn't know that the new TL was that real, should study the enemy a lil' more next time.

I don't know, is family. Like fight my big brother, it all love at the end of the day. If he is a member, I think his name would be like 'Navin', he had a older TL also, had headers and a V-Tech control, said he got some nice gains with just that.

Dont think they can...I heard something like the exhaust manifold is "part" of the block. Is that right? Like that the manifold can't be removed? Unless maybe some serious custom work was done.

I don't belive it's that crazy of custom work. They would basically have to cut and re-weld because the headers portion are no longer bolt on.
