Oh really ? Well put all of that plus every bolt on you can find on ANY Mustang and accordingly to the ricer crowd, you'll still loose to a bone stock Silly Retard Trolly 4-door(SRT 4 Neon).

I hate my auto. It absolutely sucks compared to a manual. I'm saving (for a long time) so that my next mod is a T56. I'd rather have a manual tranny with my current set-up, than spend the cash supercharging the auto.

BTW I'm not a drag racer. Its my daily driver, and I'd like to autocross.

Add 4.10's/shift kit/2600-2800 stall torque converter and you will beat the manual with an average driver and maybe even the good driver unless he to has 4.10's.

For those of you who have daily drivers, dont forget you will get worse mileage from an auto, especially with 4.10's and a stall.. Just a reminder.

I get better mileage from my 03 cobra then I did my old Auto GT :O

That being said, they both have their perks. I dont want an all out drag car, I would rather have a nice well rounded machine, so a manual suites me much more. I got very bored of my auto, just mash the gas and go. Sure it was awesome for racing, but meh, most of the time im in the car im not drag racing.

LMAO, you don't have a clue... 4.10s-4.30s in an auto will rape a stock 5spd.
