Sorry if I like to drive a luxury car that shifts itself. Shifting is a chore...

Guess I'm not a "real" man...

Heres what I found out, I used to have a 2006 Eclipse GT automatic. I would rape 5AT's all day even when I was in shiftronic mode. Now that I have a 5AT, I can tell that the car in auto mode is WAY slower. But in shiftronic mode, it has A LOT of torque so maybe try manually shifting and see what happens. But yeah in auto mode...my car is slow too

I think Trey's Wife use to pull better times in the quarter mile using the shiftronic.

I like my slow 5AT

My G runs 14.3s manually shifted and higher 14.6s letting it shift itself. I'll also add that my 14.3s are quicker than most stock 6MTs on this site, even a lot of the modded ones
