Not causing trouble but im happy :)

Beat a 5th gen 5spd in my 4th gen. If you dont know me or my mods ...

Stillen intake, Greddy Exhaust are really the only power mods i have.
I think my CF hood may have helped though.

We both got great launches he chirped the first 2 shifts, i pulled and stayed 2.5 feet ahead of him , his nose at my door handle.. we stayed this way until i decided to shut it down at 80, mind you we were doing this on a 30mph limited road ... It was at 2am, i like to go fast and not endanger lives ... it was interesting because he was some guy i just ran into. We both had another person with us, and he was an SE.

i was just surprised i could do that ... especially since im a CALI-SPEC Automagic.

jOO all fear the automagics now...muhahahaha

But this just goes to show that a stick shift is only faster than an automagic if the driver has the skillz to drive it.

Automagic power baby!

If you have any fuel-cut issues, getting the TSB's done for that will definitely help you launch better

Man, I must live in a very sheltered area of NY because I can't think of one double lane road that is 30mph.
