tl type s is serious power
its a rare chance that ill get to drive my mom's TL-S but when i do i treasure every moment of it. especially this one.
at the red light, i look to my left and start drooling. it had to be a brand new gs430 silver. anyway the guy noticed me starin his ride and gave me a nodd. i started thinkin should i do it, or no.. my mom was sittin is passenger and i knew she'd scream her head off if i do it. well light changed, and .5 seconds later i realized myself moving over into autostick mode, and heavy footing it.. wooooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh, i never felt a quicker take off in that car. i didnt blow past the gs430, neither did he blow past me. i was pretty amazed how neck and neck the two cars were. i felt a victory in that. the guy musta spent twice what the tl was and it has the same performance. im pretty sure that guy was giving everything his car had, atleast i hope so. otherwise it would totally put a damper on my story.
but needless to say, i havent been able to drive the tl since.
but i do have a question, anyone selling the factory OEM kit for 02 tl-s?

It is serious power !

thats sweeeeet. i knew it had to be close anyway. the spec on gs430 is what 290 horses? am i right. im not sure... but type s has 260 horses. 30 horses is a lot. but thats where i think driver comes in... i think gs430 is heavier too. not sure...ShabsterTL said:I beat BMW 530i & GS300 twice with my 2002 TL Type S.

nice kills
everything about that car is clean. i love the interior of the tl-s. and the shifter, its not no stick or anything, but it begs to be shifted in the auto stick mode. how quickly it goes from normal to auto stick mode is a hint.
comptech has a supercharger for it bosted tl-s
bosted tl-sBoosted CL-S and TL-S are sweet.
I like the GS430, too.
but I'd get the IS300 w/ Stage III Turbo kit and 6spd conversion.
500hp/500tq! booya!
