Mating the manual gear box to the Supercharged engine has been attempted by many members way smarter and far more talented than me and it’s always been a no go.
My understanding is that the ECU for the supercharged engine and TCU had never been set up from the plant to talk to one another. And I believe none of the members (so far) have been able to work it out.
As I had indicated, there are many posts about the swap and the mating of a manual on this forum. but it’s still a really fun ride with an automatic.
if your car makes you smile now, more power, even with an auto trans will turn a simple smile into a Maniacal grin
