Honestly being a car enthusiast and having a 5AT I'd supercharge it and call it a day.

If you are looking to make over 400whp....FORGET IT !!!!! and get a 6MT . It cost way to much . A twin turbo maybe the best bet with the AT5.

Wouldn't a TT be the worst combination for a 5AT since the power build up is not linear and most of the power from turbos occurs at higher RPMs which would pretty hard to shift with a 5AT in time before hitting the redline. It would probably require him to rebuild his tranny and most of the power will be wasted with a stock 5AT. Well that is what I thought at least why a TT might be too harsh on a 5AT.

I would just get a Vortech SC along with some skirts and a front bumper.

may cost you 11k though.. but that sounds like a plan.

either that or you can donate 5-6k to me for SC

SC is (i believe) safer but you can get maybe 420hp out of it... Turbo you have the potential to get 500+ HP. But I believe on a 5at you need to build up your tranny to support a turbo at that HP.
