Auto vs 5spd

[killab443]

Might be a silly ? but stock a gsx auto 2g or a gsx 5psd 2g. Is the auto faster? I heard that auto cars with turbo tend to be faster. is this true? What does the gsx awd run compared to the awd 5spd

Are you seriously asking this question? It's been beat to death more than once already. There's a certain something you should've done before posting this. The gearing is a little less aggressive in the auto cars and that tranny's a little heavier than a 5-speed. In stock form the 5-speeds are a little quicker if they are driven right. In serious drag racing competition, autos are usually seen as the way to go.

Thats why it was a silly question. But thanks for the answer. Awd trannies break easier with more hp, correct?

Sorry (not trying to be mean) but thats an even sillier question. Everything is more prone to break with more horsepower. The more stress and strain that a part is loaded with the more likely it will eventually break. A lot of people who don't drive particularly hard as far as launching and bangings gears can increase horsepower by a lot and not have immediate problems but then someone else who revs their high hp AWD to 8000 and dumps the clutch on slicks can break everything all at once.

I meant auto not awd.
