Well from what I've heard, the TSX is pretty much as close to what was previously called Type S in terms of suspension settings and whatnot.

If there is a Type S with a V6, it would most likely by the Accord 3.0 V6 with 240 hp so as not to get too close in HP numbers to the new TL. Which would still be an awesome car.

Acura just released the new TL, but without at Type S model. The TL has 270 which is WAY more than the old base TL, and even more than the previous Type S. It seems as if Acura has already incorporated it's previous Type S elements into the new TL - sportier suspension, and they even have a performance tire package with the 6 speed manual. So I also question if we will see a future TL Type S, I think it would have to be a monster!!!

The J32 engine is too heavy for the TSX.
I'd rather have chassis balance than power.
