      Auto for me.

      If anything you can use the DA calculator here. http://www.dragtimes.com/da-density-...calculator.php If the air was at bad as you say then that might be your issue.

          Sounds backwards to me. From what I've seen and read, autos tend to get better ET, while manuals tend to get higher MPH.

          Either way, with a limited slip differential, some suspension, and other simple bolt ons (along with practice) and he should be down to low 15s... altitude density permitting.

            Cool... I hit 15.2 in a bone stock, to the paper filter, factory tires, and open differential 2000 5-speed v6 Camaro.

            and I had raced a few 3.08 geared auto 3.8Ls that were high 15s, low 16s all the time in my modded 3.4L 5-speed that ran similar times.


            Until you start get into stall converters and shift kits... I will say manuals are faster.

                  Exactly my point. Stock for stock some reason manuals are faster until you do some work.
