My car's automatic 7A. I want either the 4A-GZE and manual swap. OR 4A-GE 20V Silvertop automatic:-) I know the silvertop has a very high compression ratio. 10.5 i think. I wanted to turbo later on. Is it possible to lower the compression ratio of this motor? How hard is it to do and how do u do it? Thanks.

Manual just isnt as efficent... more power to the wheels > more power from the engine

Heh... what a wild guess. Manual trannies are much more efficient in transfering. Auto trannies may sometimes get better gas mileage, which you may translate into "efficiency"... but as far as putting down power... can't beat a manual tranny. Much less stuff to suck up power.
