The only thing I can imagine he means is the size of the piping will greatly reduce backpressure, decreasing power. But anyone with a brain knows that 'backpressure' is BS, the larger the piping the more exhaust flow, doesn't matter about anything else. The only drawback on an automatic is you're not making near as much of a power increase because you're limited by the transmission itself, but it's not going to "kill" anything. You just won't see as much a gain as if you would on a manual car.

thank you! only one came out truly intelligent to figure out what the question was. anyway, i think i would notice at least a big difference in top end performance for an auto right? low end might be the killer i thought, and might demand more gas to push it more.

ok since were on the topic of auto's and exhaust do you guys think that an exhaust on an auto sounds like sheit or what ive heard people tell it does im just wandering what you guys think

If you would of asked an intelligent question, instead of the stupid shit from your original post, which I'm positive has been covered before, I'm sure you would have gotten better results.

Why can't people spell shit? Is it the Asian way of say shit? Not an Asian bashing, but thats how many Asians (particularily the Vietnamese) say shit. They go "Shi-et". It is just a random off-topic question.

The torque converter will probably negate any noticable change in the low or high end. Even so, exhaust sound cool and that's a perfectly good reason to buy one. It isn't necessary to rationalize every mod with performance increases.

Get that shit converted to 5sped then worry about the damn exhaust.

If you have a stock engine, why even get exhaust. Money could be better spent somewhere else.

Some people with low I.Q. really take time to figure simple questions out until frustration occurs and assumes its stupid.

save the money and put it towards a 5 speed swap.
