Have an 05 touring auto, Wife's Car, which I will now be driving. I like the car but really want to boost it. My worry is the automatic transmission will not be up to the challenge and also really would prefer a 6 speed. Would it be possible to swap a 6 speed in my car, anybody done it? Thanks

 

Its been done on here but very costly

 

Transmissions isn't showing ownership.


I would suggest getting a different car with what you want ie MT-then boost that

 

Anyone built the automatic? What are it's limits in stock form?

 

Transgo I believe is a must if you are going fi on an auto

 

What is transgo?

 

Best advise is to trade in wifey's car for a 6MT. Conversions are cost prohibitive and unnecessary since you haven't started the mod process. Hope that helps.

 

^^ Less money and less headaches. Also search; it will answer all of your questions and more.

 

i suggest the above said as well but if your deadset on this, youd need

mt trans/clutch/flywheel, all cylinders etc.
mt wiring harness
mt ecu
clutch line
mt pedal set
mt console trim piece (shiter area only)
mt driveshaft
mt gauge cluster (optional)
labor to do the job

*and if you notice under the shifter trim* is the trans tunnel, the auto has a different configuration, so you would have to cut out the old one and put in the mt version of it.

all in all, while its stock, trade it in for similar year mileage trim etc.
