Notice that the tS is only available in MT.
Yes, there were a couple of mild changes. Still, the emissions of an AT with red intake are not going to be greater than those of the tS.

Because it didn't have an AT option.
tS emissions would still be greater than an AT with the red intake.

It's not just a material change on the intake.
All cars worldwide including AT's got the new header and ECU (and a few of the other changes).
