nope you dont have to, oobe for one was running a 7afte on his auto. and from the vids he posted a while ago, it was pretty quick smile.gif.

I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.
my St was turbo charged befor i started the swap and i had an auto and was running 12PSI fine.
alright thanks for the help guys.

did you notice any slipping during gear shifts? ive been looking for shift kits for the a246e, but havnt found too many options.

other then that one time at the track i never had any problems at all with the stock auto St tranny. you probly wont find any thing either for the trans such as torque converters or closer ratio drive gears. i have searched before and found nothing.
