I know Dave Buschur looked into the auto from the Evo7 a couple years back but with importing it the cost wasn't worth it.

I must say i do like rowing through the gears in the Evo so i guess it would depend upon how much it ended up beinf compared to a prep'd dogbox.

Haven't looked into it much but could you control the shifting with an aftermarket EMS

Anyway sorry for the slight OT!

GL Joey on the outting coming up i hope the trans gremlins stay home
Thanks Pat! I sure hope trans gremlins stay away. Ill keep everyone posted on how it goes!.

I don't know about you fast guys but having a auto takes the fun out of it.

I love banging gears

It does take some of the fun out of it. But if the auto can hold up to the abuse it will go threw then its worth it for the guys who are sick of replacing clutches and trans parts on a daily basis.

I want auto. Haha

I can agreee with that man. Its a pain to go through clutches and trans all the time. Auto Evo would be something different though. I guess will wait and see lol

Whats up Mark! Its been awhile. No worries im still going to shift the Junk Box. Auto Evo will come down the road if its even a possibility. I would like to see the difference though A 8 sec pass in the Junk Box is possible, i just need to let it happen and not try so hard. It will come and hopefully can get close tomorrow. Ill keep everyone updated. Hope to see you out soon Mark before the season ends. Hows the Evo doing!?
