5 speed

reptile610:
does it help that much?

PaulW:
yes it does.  automatics rob about 15-25% of your power through friction of the clutch plates, to move your vehicle. there's a lot of "slippage" inside an auto that make the engine work harder to maintain the same speed.  standards are a "direct" drive system with no parts inside to rob horse power.  that's why a standard is rated at higher hp at the wheels.
