Default ???Thoughts on convering auto to manual???

Just wanted to see if anyone has done it, or attempted to do it. I would also like to know peoples thoughts and opinions about it.

It has definitely been done.

But is it worth it? Probably not. If you MUST have a manual, have the money to do it, but don't have the ability to just buy a different car... go for it.

yep been done quit a few times...if you can find the parts cheap then it can be well worth it IF your thinking of going big. Boosted autos are hella fun and can last for a while if taken care of and just a couple of mods. Keep em low boost and you got an auto rocket for years to come.
