Renntech Package 3 upgrade for 6-speed?

Anyone know if the package is still compatible with the six speed stick? I heard that it wouldn't handle more power, was too slow or something. Help me out. Thanks!

p.s. anyone who has this, what gas mileage do you get and what performance numbers does it turn in?

Sorry to be picky - but you say you are getting ready to graduate - from what? Because your signature shows you have 5K miles as of 9/17/04 - and right now it is only 7/19/04. Just wondering...... ?

BTW - if you are going to be in LA during a Hook-Up, don't forget to sign up!! :wink:

sounds like it would last longer if you did... this package seems to be wicked expensive - You may want to check with Kleemannusa.com to see how much better a deal they have.

Thanks for the date clarification. Now have 8k miles. But, to be clear, everyone in LA has something nicer than the other person. So I guess this is a start. :? thanks again for that info
