Will the VI work/be worth it with an AUTOmagic

I would like to slap one of these on, but my
concern is losing any hp/torque on the low end
which shows in the latest dynos.
Anyone with an auto going to try this mod out?

2) IanSW = auto + plus has about 100 posts about his experience and what he has on his car.

I'll be getting one soon.

I have an auto with Don's VB mod, I/Y/E, JWT ECU, UR UDP, etc. I can't wait until Cranman dyno's his with the ECU and see how much it helps at the higher RPM's. I've run out of bolt-ons until this. The dyno's prove it's worth. Even though it adds little or no horsepower, allowing the car to hold it's peak power until redline is awesome. I have a track 15 minutes away so I'll get a lot of runs with it so we'll see what the new auto N/A 1/4 mile record will be dropped to. Any speculators?

Chances are you'll get more out of the VI.

no he'll get more out of the five speed swap.

in complexity or cost so...

Within the 6-7 months, I plan on doing both, but I'm debating which to do first.
