nice!

I hope to go auto someday soon. I'm way to slow shifting when on the spray.

I don't know anything about C4's, do they have overdrive?

My AOD took a ****! doesnt go after 45mph feels like its in neutral, im thinking of going to a better trans dont know what to do. Plus doing a manual swap seems like a pain in the ***. I wanta do something just to get it back on the road.

A manual swap isn't bad at all. I went from an AOD to TKO600. You couldn't pay me to go back. IMO, if you aren't a drag car then go manual. WAY more fun(which is what's it's all about, right?).

If you're taking your car to the track often, get an auto. If not, manual all the way. By far a more rewarding driving experience.
