The extra emissions due to stickier tires and the drag of a wing are far worse than what would happen with a mildly different intake on an automatic.

The material of the intake alone doesn't matter there were more changes than just what it was made of. Why else would they make all of the same engine changes as the MT but leave the intake?
Notice that the tS is only available in MT.
