Acura readies 286-hp TL Type S - Autoblog

The Boston Globe spilled the beans! For MY 2007, Acura has added a Type S model to the TL range. Those who opt for the package are rewarded with a 3.5L V6 churning out 286 horses and 256 lb.-ft. of torque, 28 hp and 23 lb.-ft. better than the base TL's 3.2L mill.
Sweet! Keep in mind Honda/Acura have changed the way they rate HP. so 286 HP is more like 300ish

all I know is the old TL had 270HP for 2004-2005 after going to the new rating system the new 2006 TL has 258HP both are the same motor, just different way of rating the HP.

Being that the old TLs were right at low 14s in the 1/4 (6 speed models) I wonder if a stock TL could break into the 13s with this new model.
