    Auto will take out the inconsistencies of the driver. And Jeremy we all know you need that! I'd say go auto, and be different, or just sell everything and get a car that's not a DSM.

    Oh yeah and another thing, you won't have to worry about burning up clutch discs from not being able to hold the power you're going to be making this year.

            Just out of curiosity, how much more power to the wheels do you expect to lose through the tranny with an auto compared to manual?

              Even if he loses say, 45 hp through the wheels (won't be that much) he will make up for it by being able to launch at near full boost....and nothing shifts faster than an auto, so he will never need to lift off the throttle which can help in preventing missed shifts and helps prevent the car from transfering weight forward during shifts.

                and the turbo will always be spooled once he spools it...

                At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!
