Having 2nd thoughts

Killer_Bee · July 26th, 2007, 10:47 AM

Im having second thoughts on my 98 mustang V6. I love this car and i really want to mod the shit out of it my only problem is its automatic. Is my auto going to stand up to a stick? How much and hard is it to make it a manual. I've replaced trannys b4 just not auto and manual. so should i keep it as my DD and save all my money i can and get another car or just go for it and beef this one up.

yeah yeah this is the biggest skepticism ever ..

20% loss = A/T
15% loss = M/T

doesnt make that much of a difference enough for you to doubt your car .

Pro
Dont have to worry about missing a gear

Con
Can control your rpm's

dont stress it . just start modding it and whether its a manual or not youll be happy

well you can dial it in with a tuner ... and a shift kit will help you build up the tranny and it will be strong and quick

like everyone else said, just throw a shift kit in there and you'll be just as good as any other manual out there, probably better even, and tunes are a good way to get your car running a little better...

But, in order to get road head, you have to get the girl in the car, and chicks dig sticks.

so get a shift kit and prove them wrong, and then you'll REALLY have 'em

itschristorres8 · July 27th, 2007, 12:20 AM

the autos with a good torque converter and a jmod and adjusting shift points is much stronger then a stock 5speed
