i have a 03 rally edition that just hit 150k. runs beautifully. has greddy exhaust and injen cold air intake.

if i am going about 15-20 mph and am picking up speed very slowly sometimes the rpms will raise from about 1.8 to about 3 without switching gears or speeding up. feels like its wanting to shift but just revs. this only happens if im picking up speed super slowly. normal driving conditions this doesnt happen ever.

so i said to myself if the trans is going. id like to convert to stick so i can turbo this beast up. found bunch of turbo kits on ebay for around 500-750. full set ups.

now is it worth converting to stick with 150k on motor? just replaced valve cover gasket and soon will be putting in new racing timing belt. found for 38.99

anyone have a parts list of what ill need to be buying and how much it cost you. i would love to turbo it but i dont want to do that auto. only if i put in a stick.

thank you.

as of now it sounds great with greddy and injen upgrades but once again it is auto and i cant stand it. lol

 

Hi. Did you manage to convert from auto to a stick? how much did it cost?

 

Do not get an ebay turbo http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum...-your-thinking

 

Adaptive transmissions learn how you drive. If you drive hard normally when u drive slower and at on and off the gas it will shift hard.
