That should be a good solution for the automatic people that want more control.
Most people don't realize how stout the automatic DSM transmissions can be with a few simple upgrades. They are really hit and miss however. If its spent most of its life w/o proper maintence, it will wear out quickly.
IPT builds a great trans for them however, which is nice. When you compare the price of a built auto trans with a restalled torque converter to a "shep" tranny and a good flywheel/clutch combo, you come out almost even.
Just my $.02.
