They are nearly identical.

i thought it was like .25 sec faster than stock? It was ranging from 50% -60 % decrease in time compare to stock shifts.

My main concern is how's the drive in auto mode with the forged VB? Will auto still be rough even if I'm driving normal?

In "D" at light throttle, they is very little harshness. But once you goto about 1/4 throttle with FI, the firmness increases. It is a performance deliberate shift...which is what most users prefer.

Excellent description and exactly my experience. Under 1/4 to 1/2 throttle when you shift from 1-2 and 2-3 your foot will jump on the accelerator from the quickness of the shift. I find myself using manumatic much more often if not always now. More fun!

We can do the VB's in the AWD models, but I havent personally tried it, so I am unable to report on how the shifting feels...with power applied to all for wheels.
