With a built auto it will change up and down a lot faster than stock but not down if the revs are too high . Dude:flame Dev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miguel Posted August 2, 2004 Share Posted August 2, 2004 The box is built with some different internals that enable it to handle the power more and shift faster. No sofware is touched Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No means fully modded, not a standard car Your best bet is to test drive the both models, and make your decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
