Edit: You don't need all bolt-on mods for a manual to catch up with a stock automatic. I exaggerated some here and we have a counter proof from another guy. But with all my explanations hope that clarifies your concern on a modern automatic gearbox's performance.The S550 mustang starts in model year 2015.
In years from 2015 automatic beats manual in every way, performance wise.
Some may argue manual is more fun, but it's subjective and I think banging through effortless and efficient paddle shifts is fun as well.
I like torque multiplication and driveline damping of a torque converter, and I like that I have two shift schedules and two throttle responses to switch between.
I don't want my car with all bolt-on mods just to catch up with a stock automatic.
Yeah I'm starting a fight right here and I feel the cannons are aiming at me.
I learned driving with a manual and grew up with a manual, but I still prefer efficiency automatic for fast pace driving in the valleys.
Come on it's 2018 now, automatic is the future.
Ps, fordguys550, good job moding your car's engine compartment.
