Would this gain me any horsepower? I know that an automatic transmission sucks more horse from the wheels because it has more moving parts, so swapping in a manual transmission should show some gains right? How much horse ya think though?

get a shift kit and a performance torque converter and it will be as efficient as a 5spd and shift harder and faster. -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition

Well, B&E will make a torque converter for the car if you want. You can fill out the form on their website to get a custom torque converter made, but you need many dementions which is why I decided not to go for that option. And where did you find a shift kit? Most I see are for older cars.

level 10 makes shift kits and performance torque converters for all toyota auto trannies http://www.levelten.com/ a shift kit replaces the valve bodies in the tranny with bigger ones and therefore allows it to shift much more quickly. and simply adding a performance torque converter shaves about 1/2 a second of your ET. with those two things, the car will shift faster than most people can in a 5spd. -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition
