Well, yes, I know the stick is faster off the line; however, in my "reality" I'm gonna lose money whether I trade for the 6-speed or dump money into this auto. I didn't want the Civic SI, great as the Civic may be, being ANOTHER Civic tuner is about as original as sliced bread.My Accord feels pretty fast, I mean, I don't know if it's going to get the respect that the same car in MT would get, but leaving it stock seems pretty lame and "If I can't be the fastest, I won't even try"ish to me.Now back to my original question: Will it WORK in the auto? And #2, will the gains be worth the cash (I think this is what you were talking about Accordio)?
