[QUOTE="TheCPE, post: 10950663, member: 124065"] I'm not discounting the potential of the auto. I'm merely pointing out the facts. The auto with a 3.15 rear end and higher gearing isn't going to have the mechanical advantage that the manual does and it is going to have about 10-15hp less at any given rpm. Auto's always feel faster in traffic because you mash the gas and it downshifts automatically for you to the optimal gearing, people get lazy and don't always downshift to the correct gears with a manual. In a roll or dig the auto is going to lose to the manual in stock form, not by a lot but it will. I'm happy to be a test subject in this matter:D [/QUOTE]
