on a stock ralliart, not at all.
On one with 340 torque, yes, and ill explain why.
1. steve has aheavy foot, and likes to punch it alot out of 6ht gear on the highway(where he does 100 miles a day)
2. with 340 ft lbs at 3200 rpm, and with crusing speeds in 6th gear keeping him near that, punching it out of 6th in auto normal mode will force the tranny to try and move 300+ foot pounds of torque. By simply shifting himself to forth, and then hitting the throttle he will put less stress on the transmission.
If you drive in normal auto mode you have noticed the car trying its best to shift quickly. At part throttle it will be shifting in daily city driving in and around 300 ft lbs all day, which can also be adverse in the long run.

Either way Gens Ra makes nice power! You know what im saying? Daily driven with that kinda tq on sst stock clutches could be furiously damaging to the trans.

Gotchya! I get the whole downshifting manually than flooring it will help put less stress on the trans. smoke *cough* Either way Gens Ra makes nice power! You know what im saying? Daily driven with that kinda tq on sst stock clutches could be furiously damaging to the trans.
