well manual get that little more power and are about a second difference on the quatermile. i/h/e wont add much power on a d17a2. you only have 3 hp if that. manuals have like 10hp more i believe. from dyno charts a saw

Rep Power: 261 Dude, dont feel bad about it.
I ran into a 2 door EX while driving home from the inlaws house one day. He was ahead of me in the left hand turn lane. When the light turned green, he left hard, squeeling the tires around the whole turn. When i got straight in the lane, i got on it. I started passing him very quickly, then suddenly he started keeping up a bit. But by 3rd, i was pulling on him by a decent amount again.
When we got side by side, the guy was like "What the hell do you have done?"
I told him "an exhaust and ram air intake".
He said "BullSh*t, i just lost to you and i have a 75 shot of nitrous."
I told him he must not be very good at driving.
BTW, i was running 11 psi on a T3/T04E with a ported cylinder head and a 2.5" straight through exhaust.
