dude! r u dreaming? hahaha even if u have manual, and u r expert at shifting gear tht u can always get peak rpm, ur 500 can't save u. cuz tht bitch trans am has 305 hp stock. urs only 105 hp stock. ur 500 bucks gonna boost to wht? at most 120 hp. i say avoid the embressment. cuz i experienced tht the hard way. my g/f has fire bird, stock engine, intake, header and just some exterior like wheels and stuff. mine was swap b16, header, the whole chassis, no turbo though. and i couldn't accelerate the same. i'm tellin u man.
