Yep. A manual box is obviously alot better but the auto will be fine

You'll need to get a blue slip at some stage if you plan to sell the car because the engine numbers won't match. That said you don't need it to pass rego and I still haven't gotten around to doing the blue slip a year later on mine.

It's all internal work so they'd never know
If you're gonna go a stage 3PS you'd atleast want to have extractors too, so that'd probably be your biggest insurance issue. |

It comes down to :
1 - They will cover you at no extra cost
2 - You might pay more for insurance coz of it
3 - they won't cover you
You're best to ring round to see how each company treats their mods. |

ITS Performance has unofficially gone of the air for awhile....til some personal matters get ironed out...best you give Mark a call on the mobile as he 'may' still be able to help you out. |
