Stock automatic, what all is needed to swap an automatic to a 6 speed manual possibly? 4 speed if not possible.

Its completely possible. I did it last year about this time.

There is a sticky in the manual transmission FAQ page that has a bill of materials and walkthrough of exactly how to do it. A lot of input from us vets as well.

as for cost, look around $2k for used parts, of course more for new. I had used built trans, new clutch, new master, new slave and used everything else and came out to $3k

I would recommend putting a nice stall and shift kit instead. Heck with that money you can even cam it. I did an a4 to m6 swap earlier this year and I regret getting rid of my yank 3600. I could of done heads and cam instead and been a lot happier. Theres nothing like the pull of a stalled auto.

How does the stalled auto work? that sounds good because im planning on getting headers and an ORY, so less $ i spend the better.
