i would do the exaust to but other then that normal stuff like better wires plugs all that. just with the stock motor i wouldent use alot of boost maby 5 or 6 pounds to start and see how the motor handles it.

with a stick shift when you put the car into first gear it does only that and nothing else untill u put it into 2nd. and so on. with an auto tranny when u put it into drive thats all u need to tell the car the car then changes gears by how fast or slow the car is going. also the auto uses the fluid to help change the gears and the stick can use fluid or mecanical leavers to change gears. also there are many more moving parts to an auto tranny then with a stick shift. hope this helps u a bit more.
