sorry to hear that, it realy is a pretty good trans it just need a few upgrades to keep up with motor mods and abuse. one guy at our shop has done over 100 of these and they work great.

Some video comparison , same camshafts , times may be different due to different topend components . Auto / 6 speed view of running similar ET .

Change over from a m6 to a th400 w/rmvb and never looked back.

Much easier to tune and get good driveability out of a big cam with a stalled auto. If I could swing it, I would switch in a heartbeat. The stall soaks up all of the low rpm surging that you get from a big cam. If you are going daily driver with mild cam then I would go M6 for fun factor.

DOUBT IT

I haven't found an M6 with similar horsepower numbers yet that could come within a half a second of my times. The only ones that come close are putting down at least 30 more rwhp, and they're only 5 tenths behind me.

Auto for the drag-racing win...

Auto because it sucks driving at rush hour with an M6

In my opinion, I would get a 6 speed because there a lot easier to work on, less complicated than the auto trans, and a 6 speed is just a lot funner to drive around in. Auto is good for consistency, like for racing on the drag strip and stuff like that. 6 speed is good for cruisin around and just having fun with it. See, I dont race, so I would get a 6 speed for sure!

I guess I'll stay bias, however I made the switch from a stalled a4 to a M6 this past weekend. My car I think is much faster with the M6, but with the a4 I could launch better which propels good et's. Once I install the 9" I think I could get decent 60ft enough to run my low 11's. I can say driving from Ft. Worth, Texas to Alexandria, LA. my car averaged 28 mpg driving 75-80. Also, with the stalled a4 the car was loud, but now I have control of the exhaust note. Finally, my car feels more streetable with the M6. I think if you drag race an a4 might be your ticket, but if you drive your car regular and visit the track 3-4 times a year stay with the M6.

How about an auto with paddle shifters on the steering wheel?

Th400 all the way

stay auto- there is quite a bit of cost converting. I am going to be going th400 this year, and my 6spd will be going in a project car of some sort.

What about a five speed auto(5L60E)? Is that a good option. There's an '02 Formula A4 at my dealership that I'm looking at, and if swapping to a 5-speed is an option down the road, than I'm sold. The only thing is I do like shifting myself, but if I can get better launches out of an auto, and can make it go faster, that'll make me really happy.

I think a stall converter gives your engine max torque from a dead stop. Does it do anything besides that? How much are they and how much to install? Just trying to learn and I don't know much...thx.

The manual is fun for sure , Of course the auto is faster, So is it fun or fast thats the real question. Of course for some being fast is fun so ?

Chicks love the guys who win races and keep a hand free to touch the erogenous zones of thier female anatomy. They are not impressed by guys who are always grabbing thier stick. Nuff said
