Nice to hear you enjoy the added performance of the car, but I have bad
news for you: your slushbox is on borrowed time now. The stock automatic
transmission in these cars is barely adequate even for the torque of the
stock engine. Consider doing the 5sp conversion or better have a spare
automatic transmission ready.
