Help with Acura TL

One of my frineds has a 2004 Acura TL with the engine code: j32a3 that was first rated at 270 hp I believe then later dropped to 258 due to SAE. Anyway, he went to the local track which is a 1/8 mile and he turned a 10.3. He said that he tried using the Sportshifter and just letting the ECU walk it up and he could not go lower then 10.3. I personally dont know what TL's run at the track and their so heavy so is a 10.3 bad or average? If their are any other TL owners out there could you possible chime in and shed some light on this with some tips on how to effectively run the car at the track. By the way his only mod is a Fujita air intake and any tips on pulling more power from the j32a3.
