I think that true headers make all the difference

Not only a base '07 TL Type S has 286HP, 26HP more than the '03 TL Type S, which has 260, and that 260 is more like 246 according the new SAE standards.
So it's like a 40HP difference he has to make up for.
But your Type S weighs around 200lbs less. 3450 to 3650.

When i put headers on my 2nd GEN CL-S (I/H) it made a world of difference. Comptech claims 24-30 whp and you can really feel the difference. I felt the difference the most after taking them out of my car when i had to sell it. My CL-S turned into a pig.
The Procats on the TL-S dont help much at all, since the 07 TL-S already has High flowing Cats from the factory.
You said you ran him 4 more times and you destroyed him, you even pulled 4 cars on him. That tells us something about the driver on the 07 TL-S...

It's not that I don't believe you, it's that I don't believe you were blow away by a 6M/T TL-S by four cars and then you beat a 5A/T TL-S by 2 cars. That would be the difference between the 6M/T and 5A/T is like night and day.

dude ur tellin me i was shocked when the stock 6mt pulled that hard on me. i know the owner of the 6mt and i had my boy that has an aspec in my car. given that i had an additional 200lbs in my car at that time shouldnt make that big a difference.
he got into an accident a few weeks after when a suv ran a red light. he just got his car and it hasnt been the same. We raced from a slow roll and we were neck and neck till the top of 3rd when he started pulling. All 3 of can admit that the car is not the same.

Thats an awesome race bro, by looking at your mods and his and his also being 3G TypeS. I think you really know how to shift that tiptronic on the Right Time. Did you do any weight reduction on ur "Sick TypeS"

Lightweight wheels is where you would see the biggest benefit, that's what I'm doing. Saving up for some 16lbs wheels. Should save me 34lbs all around, and that's to the wheels. They say reducing one pound to the wheels is like three pounds of static weight, or weight thats on the car itself.

my rims wrigh 30lbs each 
but im not Giving them up :P I want Luxury and Speed at the same time, thats why i never thought of buying STis or Evolutions. + Automic is all the way for NYC daily Driving. IF i would do weight Reduction, Def consider LightWeight Battery, SpareTire Removal and i guess thats it.
