a TL-P with all those hookups can beat a Type-S

we all know a TL-P can have a 30whp gain with all those stuff

Where are you located? If you are not going to use the front lip, I'd be interested in taking it off your hands. Please email me at armada27@gmail.com if you are willing to let it go.

Keep in mind too that it may have a lot to do with the "feel" of the car. I went from a 3.0 CL (98) to my TL-S... and for a while it seemed like the TL-S wasn't as fast. Reason it felt that way is b/c it was more refined.

But yes, a TL-P could keep up or possibly beat a TL-S... but if you do those same mods to the TL-S... watch out . ~28 whp from headers alone.....

the kit actually makes the drag higher and more down force

without the kit it has less drag
