I've never seen UniChip make a chip for our 6-speeds...probably Greddy E-manage, or AEM stand alone.
Ex...do it...there might be a lot of members that would go through if you did.

edit: than again I notice the dyno goes up to 6750, CL-P redline is 6250... did they just go past redline on the dyno? I wouldn't think so since their obviously isn't any gains past redline....

They had to of passed redline...the guys who tuned my car did 
But it really all depends on air temp, barometric pressure, what altitude your at...when it comes to seeing realistic numbers.

I would get the Unichip if it were available for the CLS6mt. I dont understand the figures for the acura CL dyno on the Unichip site. they are way to high.

CLs are big bitches though. It may get off the line just a hair quicker (type-S) but the S2K will catch up eventually. Check out the qtr mile numbers for 2004 S2K. 14.19 quarter mile (from Motor Trend)
While front-wheel drive will never be the optimum drive configuration for a performance car, the CL Type-S with the six-speed does its best to compensate. It's certainly fast enough to humble most sport coupes. During instrumented testing, our test car went from 0 to 60 mph in 6.4 seconds and cleared the quarter-mile in 15.0 seconds at 95.2 mph (Edmunds.com, Inside Line Follow up).

I think the quarter mile time on the S2K is a bit overrated, all in all I think it is overrated in general, I have acquaintances that think it weighs 2100lbs and can hang with Z06's. Honestly, my bud raced a 03 Mustang GT, both stock btw and got his handed to him in the quarter mile. Motor Trend says the 1999 Mustang GT is a 14sec car, http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/...rd_mustang_gt/

Good news, just bought a CL-S upper and lower intake manifold from ThinJim. I need a few extra parts and I'll have to get my car tuned again on the Dyno, (bummer).

EDIT: even with the RPM switch and the BVA installed too?...hmmm
The inlet is mildly ported though. I'll do another dyno once everything is pieced together.
