How much is it for the auto to manual swap? I would like to have it as an everyday driver if I can. Short shifts and not hitting much boost it will still get good gas milage and what not. I really dont know what B18 to go with. VTEC and boost looks crazy lol I would like to have VTEC so B18C dont know whether to get 1 or 5. Actualy thinking about it now a low 13 second car is pretty quick. I see an srt4 complely stock runs a 13.9. If I can beat that I would be satisfied. They have what 230HP and 260ft lbs? So I need to figure out how much HP is needed to run a low 13 or high 12. they are a 2.4L turbo 15PSI making 230HP and 260ft lbs thats kinda sad. WRX and EVO are 2.4 or 2.5L turbo making 300HP. B18 is 1.8 correct?
