Evening all,
I'm back in an earlier t5 v70 and an auto. Right first of all, is it worth the hassle of converting it to a manual? anything needed besides the obvious, which box? Any manual from a v70 (or 850) or are the t5's and R's "hardened up." Or isn't it worth the hassle, only reason I'm asking is it cost me 600 notes and doesn't owe me a grand yet and I'm getting the itch to have a re-map induction and exhaust, just think it will sound pants with the auto box changing when it wants, plus having an auto box in something like that seems bloody pointless to me sucking all the power.
If I don't swap the box will the standard t5 autotraffic box and converter take the extra ommphh. It wouldn't be a psychotic tune anyway just something to give you a grin. I'd love a facelift ph2 like the ex plod one I had but after that one it's put me off plods unless I can get one for sub 1k that's local, and the later ph2 in a manual and t5 that's not ex plod seem to be like rocking horse leavings.
Any way I hope that this makes sense as I'm tired and it's late.
