if you can't drive a 5-speed, yes, it'll always make the car a little more fun.


I had a ricetegra that was an auto which slipped really bad on the downshift but sounded great, cornered great, and in a somewhat small town, everybody feared me (silly rabbits).

i've got a 2k1 auto with the AEM SRI, but all i've noticed is that the engine sounds really nice. it's a bit to expensive for me to mod my car right now, after car payment, insurance, gas money and savings, i'm left with about 200 a month to spend on what i want. that's not a lot of money and i don't want to spend every dime of it on my car.
