Auto vs Manual although not like that

[rerun]

now i see why mustang guys are always getting made fun of...

and yes the auto is a very stong tranny, and yes it can handle more power then a manual, but the point where a manual can't hold as much power as an auto is atound the 9 second mark... and no i hate suparas, also, 5 spds are a weak transmission, a 4 speed would be best

stronger yes, but faster NO they are still slower....so once again that is the main reason why most dont get them for racing, now you go and build it up and put a ton of money in it sure it will be awsome but stock for stock a manual is still way better for nearly a grand less on the sticker price.

Anything about the squeal from the tranny at high rpms? I've heard installing a steeda Tr-Ax shifter removes the sound boot and let's in more sound from the transmission, and you can hear the shifting or I don't know it was a while ago when I read about it. Is the sound normal or abrasive?

The Tri-Ax would firm up the shifts because everyone and their mother knows that STOCK Mustang shifters shift like crap. It lets you find third quicker and all in all is a requirement if you want to speed up your shifts. As far as the whine, my GT does it also but only when i bring it up to 5600+, I really dont pay much attention to it since I enjoy the 2nd gear chirp but i reckon its normal
