Sorry, but the 06 made some good gains for minimal changes. Race me to find out... but I'll cheat and run you off the road

Back from the Dead
We did it again. this time, a little better.
Mine - 04 6mt w/ Injen CAI (full), Comptech Short Shifter (does that make a difference?)
VSA off, A/C off
His - 06 5at w/ Injen CAI (full)
VSA off, A/C off, SS mode
run#1
I got a good jump, took off and he was behind by 50mph (i could see his lights in my rear mirror by 70)
run#2
He got a good jump, but i caught up quick and was ahead a car by 70-75mph
that is 4X in a row, so case closed. 06 AT cannot compete with the 04 MT
I have since installed the DC header - i know it is in my sig, but was not on yet when we ran the horses. I also have the comptech rear sway bar and neuspeed front tie bar, but i dont think that made any difference in the takeoff.

Sounded like fun. I think even if you went from a 15 mph roll (to negate the launching advantage of the 6MT) you still would have won to make it 5-0.

Come to think of it, the only SUV I've ever had trouble with at a stoplight was a Porsche Cayenne. Then again, I'm not stock.

I would be interested in seeing a race of a stock 04 6MT vs a stock 06 6MT.
I know Hondata has shown us the dynos of the differrences, but it still would be cool to see how what that extra power translate to on the street.
San-ant, You know anyone with an 06 6MT?

His results
. 5AT (Full Auto) 5AT (Sportshift)
0-60ft 2.80 sec 2.80 sec
0-60mph 8.7 sec 7.7 sec
1/4 mile@mph 16.9@90mph 15.8@93mph
You just need to compare those numbers to what the 04MT was tested at.
