The car has always been an automatic. They did not produce too many of them which is why we hardly ever see them. It is actually a very decent and fairly responsive automatic, I cannot even imagine this thing with an upgraded valve body and torque converter

I am not to sure if a STOCK auto with the c16 fuel would be able to hold, it would be pushing the limit at that point. However, IPT sells a clutch pack kit and valvebody and there are people running over 600hp and running 9sec quarter miles without any problems.

The 4eat is a lot more stout than the 5mt so power levels can exceed upwards easily.
The valve body and clutch packs/new solenoids are all you would need for more power. Possibly a matched torque converter too.

If I can get you a clean drivers seat you sell me that bride?
The 4eat can take a lot of power and when they're set up right those suckers are fun as hell to drive. Just ask Bluwrxwgn
