Original Turbo 'd Auto !!

Drink beer, pull out hammer and resolve the problem. 
high Level plan.
pull out the plug, chase the threads, clean out the shavings. rinse and repeat if necessary.
IF for what ever reason the above plan fails, pull motor, cert the plug hole. There is the possibility getting a wild hair and port and rebuild. That costs money i don't currently have to spend.
I really feel it will be nothing more than chasing the threads. Then cleaning up the mess

damn 09, this build is looking amazing.
Good luck with that damn spark plug, hopefully it's a quick fix and you're back on your way with this thing.

Nobody gives a flying f*ck how you feel about it.
So either post something meaningful pertaining to this thread or GTFO.
Oh, and die in a fire.

I have no idea what you just said. There is a thing called punctuation, you mouth breathing twit.
Does this thread look like the OP wants opinions on what transmission his car has?
It's a turbo build thread. Not a thread for some n00b's opinion on how he doesn't like automatics.

Valid question.
Why not? Auto's are not everyone's cup of tea and neither are Sticks. Plus I'd break the MT glass gear box anyway with my 1337 driving skilz
Thanks for getting my back guys.
I'm cool with it.. When the 8 first came out, alot of the purists poo-pooed the AT. No "sports cars should ever come with a slush box". Sticks are KING! Crap like that. It got old FAST ! Some of the passionate Rx-8 drivers really don't take to the sometimes ( perceived or not) AT/MT bashing question. Sometimes it gets heated. People have been banned, ect.
It really dosen't matter anymore MT/AT AT/MT Boost, NA, NAWWWWWWSSSS. A Rx-8 is a Rx-8 at the end of the day regardless who is driving it.

Boostin'
I am confident we will be able to fix the spark plug. If not, guess we will port an engine for Dave if he can pony up for a new housing/soft seals... 
For those that are hating on the autos; here is another auto we just finished...
