lol yeah that'd be pretty sweet. Then you could buy a Turbo S shift knob. Thought about it...but I figured I might get confused and actually TRY to go into 6th gear! lol

I'll let you know how it goes. Jim is super fast with it. Plus you won't even need manual axles! And he said he would just turn the indicators off and reprogram the ECU to manual. which is good cause I was kinda worried about the odometer reading and all..

Be prepared. I'm 200 miles from 150K and it's going fast! When the auto dies...it dies fast and hard. I think putting mine in non-adaptation mode and setting it to Economy mode has probably prolonged it's life a little. Don't put it in sport mode only...I heard from Beej that it'll kill it faster!
