It's called a trade in.

Oh damn.

your car still will not be as fast as a real 6-speed....why? Because the automatics have a 4-port engine...you need a 6-port.

plus the whole CAN network sinc eyou will need the 6speeds TCM (transmission control module) which has the programming for the shifts. you'll need the whole network unless you can program CAN modules to talk to each other.

yep trade it:)

you need to add 2AT

easiest/cheapest way to get it? trade you car in.

You already made the mistake of getting the 4AT and now you want more power? and have your eye on the 6AT? well 6 months down the line you will want to get a 6MT (like all the cool kids have, me included)

Save yourself money and time and trade in for a 6MT you will not regret it.

can't do that, my car used by everyone in the family, everyone drives auto. manual is not an option.

Just get a manual. If you can't drive one, it will be worth it to learn.

theboy 07-26-2006 08:04 PM

i do agree, hehe but it will be a risk, cause my sister is a rackless driver, she might bang my car if we drive manual

NgoRX8 07-26-2006 08:05 PM

trade in for an 06 AT... not a big upgrade for the cash though.

Your only option is to: Trade It In

No worries, even your car won't bang your sister if she has no rack. :lol2:

Seems to me like he wanted more gears...not necessarily more power (who actually believes the 215hp rating...anyone...Bueller...?). The cheapest way to get stock or better 6MT power levels and acceleration will be forced induction on the 4 port. Trade in value is extremely low, so you'd more than likely lose your ass in that deal.
