if you planned on making crazy power, then you would definitely want an auto. your hand can only shift so fast with 600RWHP. my car is on that verge of wishing i had a built auto. my friend's sti (actually wrxtranceformed on this site) had 500+AWHP and that thing rev'd all the way to redline in like half a second [&:]

Get a shift kit or tune it with a chip or Programmer but honestly nothing is like the real thing. Out of all the mods I done the car swapping the auto for manual has given me a HUGE improvement even my MPG went up!

Until you're breaking into the 10s, you'd be better off with a manual.

OK greatinfoon swaping to manual, how about building an auto? What does it take, and is it hard to do?
