Question New Guy Here-Superchip ?

Bought an 03' GT 4.6L that unfortunately is an automatic.
I was wondering if a superchip would give it the added umpff! off the line say compared to the same car with a standard tranny?

Tuners make a huge difference on an auto due to the shift schedule and shift hardness changes, along with the fuel and spark changes that 5 speed guys gets also. So while you may not pick up more measurable horsepower, the actual gain going down the street or track is great.

superchips suck... dont waste your money or time. I say go with a SCT X3 or SF3 from americanmuscle.com. And if you really want to wake that thing up go grab some 4.10 gears too.
