i think getting a manual tranny conversion would be more fun that turboing an automatic. i am a big fan of turbos, but any turboed automatic i've ever driven just isn't that thrilling. I say get the manual tranny and have fun shifting gears. The turbo setup will definitely cost more and will put more strain on an auto tranny.

aren't you also debating wether to get that GS-T, well it would be cheaper to sell your car, and get a turbo & 5 speed car. rather than converting your car to stick and turbo. a lot of money on parts and labor... but i know a shop in NY that can do it. only shop in NY that did a prelude auto ---> manual swap.

U would definately have a fast car (auto turbo), and if u took it to the track have consistant times.....BUT....it wouldn't be as much fun as a 5 speed..its up to u, maybe just get the 5 speed GST like someone mentioned
