Never thought a 5spd man over a 4spd auto would make as much diff as it did.
Really feel the cam pull now
Found out the hard way though by blowin my old 4 spd. (reco 12months ago)
Absolutely lovin it just gotta smooth out my shifts a littlke and get up 2 calder park.

Im runnin an AIT turbo manual trans ECU on a non turbo and surprisingly she runs well except with my HI FLOW injectors (to rich).

Basically I wanna know if any1 got a standard EA 5spd ECU wanting to trade for a turbo mapped ECU for a man or alternatively wanna buy my 24lb injectors?

Howmuch better than the 4speed do you see it as? I may consider the swap myself, auto's dont really do it for me anymore.
