I've read somewhere that the TL- does 0-60 in 7.4 and 1/4mile in 15.7s, which is on par with TSX 6MT, but I have read somewhere that it's 6.7s and 15.2, which is quite a bit faster.....damn..I can't recall where I saw that....

^It's 6.7 15.2. Some mag did do a test that came out with the first numbers you listed, but they were wrong. The TL-S is capable of mid 14's @98-99mph, even though some intial tests were a little worse than that. Most of the car mags test cars that weren't properly broken in (loaner cars) or brand new and never broken in.

Also I-vtec is so hard to launch with it's electronic throttle. I've driven the TSX and believe me it has very little pull especially when trying to merge onto a highway. Not knocking the car, I respect it's handling and how easy it is to modify, but it's no RSX beating street machine.
BTW, there isn't a 4th gen TL yet buddy.

Number aside, I remember having no problem whatsover against my friend's TL-P when I had only an intake. So, I think with lower HP of the TL-P added with the long gears of the slushbox tranny puts a disadvantage when running against a 6MT TSX.
