08 MT Type S vs 5.7 GTO vs 06 mt Accord v6
Outstanding race...Roll-On at 35mph...The GTO had exhaust mods...The Accord had intake, exhaust j pipe and 2.5 cat back...TL Type S AEM CAI atlp race pipe stock exhaust.
TL Type S separated from the rivals by the shift of 3rd gear...Winning by 1.5 cars ahead of GTO...Accord was .5 cars behind of GTO...
Once again technology and efficiency of Japanese engines far ahead of American Muscle...Truth is the GTO is by far heavier in curb weight but more powerful engine that those from Honda.
Accord owner claims his 1/4 mile times at 14.2@ 102mph...Impressive numbers for the accord.
GTO or TL owner have not taken the cars to the strip...
Any comments or opinions?

I just took another G37 tonight. Gets better everytime. Now you've got to get a cat-back exhaust & pre-cats and you'd be a force to be reckon with.

the 04 GTO is 5.7L 350HP V8, many friends of mine owns the 6.0L version and one has the 04 GTO except it was a manual.
unless you raced a driver who cannot shift the MT or a terrible AT driver, it is hard to believe a 08 stock TL type S can win.
what mods did the type S had ? the GTO is a beast if driven correctly.

This is what the OP said in his post,
"TL Type S AEM CAI atlp race pipe stock exhaust."
So indeed it's modded. Is it 6MT or 5AT?
Also note that the race didn't go from a dig, so traction isn't a problem. If they went from a dig things may look a bit different.
Also from C&D,
http://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/..._gto_road_test
The 04 GTO 5.7 6MT, which makes 350hp and 365lbft of torque, and 3821lb, it accelerates from 0-60 in 5.3s, and the 1/4 mile in 14@102mph. A stock TL-S 6MT can do 14.1@101mph. In other words, not a huge difference, especially with those mods in the TL-S.

I hope you take it to a track. 
I'd hate for law enforcement to include Azine in their investigation of two 'juvenile' members involved in a vehicular manslaughter incident during street race just because they didn't want to take it to a track.
