Well then I guess a blower is not a good add-on, then I would think good suspension, breaks, and the good gears would be more in order, but am over my head here, so just guessing

Totally new news to me, been in Auto's so long, the last time I had a stick you put in any gear you figure the car could take, or you could afford to fix.

Guess that is why the discussion had me confused, seems to me a person who buys a stick should get to decide... But then again that gave us Auto guys tap shift so why not...

Never been a fan, no pun intended of turbo-chargers, but it has been a very long time since I followed this kind of stuff, don't they still have the lag issue over a supercharger?

lol i hate it to but we don't get the tax so i'm good with paying 15 bucks to get rid of it instead of 1200 for the tax

and the way i drive if i'm just cruising around i do my own skip shifting like 1-3-5 or whatever i feel like lol

don't believe it when some say that skipping gears is bad, it is not in any way what so ever, the worst you can do is stall it out and have to restart the car or dump the clutch in a lower gear to get the car running again

this comes from my step-dad that is a master engine and transmission tech
