I think HP wise there will be absolutely no difference..
its jsut the manual LX will probably have the better run at the 1/4 because of the full control of the car's gears.

Probably will be a little less due to some losses in the auto trans. It will also be somewhat slower to to taller final gearing.

OK. Now I have to decide which I like best, my UZI or my Civic. I'd have to sell the UZI to get enough money for the turbo.

just for reference, when we actually get on it hard, the car is at about 3500 - 4000 RPM in 4th gear and we pulled it up to 6500
