when the tsx reflash (auto) comes out...
k so i was talking to my friend today about the reflash that came out for the manual tsx. i am really interested in getting my '04 tsx auto reflashed when the auto version comes out.. but he told me my gains will be nothing compared the the gains on a manual. true? i dont get why it would be true, its the exact same engine, and its doing the exact same stuff, isnt it?

Accelration gains won't be as great because the auto doesn't have the gearing to take full advantage of all that top end power but the torque curve should like identical.

does the AT have the same neutral gear rev limiter that the AT has?
will hondata get rid of that?

For people who get the reflash, I don't see why the neutral rev limiter would be necessary... it was there just for the real noob car drivers, isnt' it??

What I meant was just that guys/gals (any gal here btw?) who would go for reflash would know not to rev it up that high in neutral. Though would be nice to know if reflash does remove that limiter or not just for knowing

wait.. thats a good question.. i think..
i probably am just being dumb, i know nothing about torque converters and such. but is there way to upgrade the tranny or something so that the torque converter wont be sucking up.. what was it... 10% of the power??

hmm
ok now im pissed. ive read that the 0-60 time on the AT is pathetic. yea i know, should have gotten MT.
question then. how much would i have to pay to get my tsx traded in for a MT version. and also, my friend told me you can get your tranny switched to MT. that true? and would it cost more than just trading in?
