Thumbs up Just wondering

Story goes, my brother left to another country and left me an '05 v6. Its auto and I was just wondering how and how much would it cost to drop a manual transmission in it? No tranny in particular at this point, its just an idea I have. Any help would be appreciated

with parts alone your looking at around $1500-$2000 ruffly in parts alone (depending on if some are new or used). Do him a favor and get an ATI procharger instead so its fast.

Yeah maybe thatd be better, I was looking at their site and they claim a 50-65% hp increase with the Procharger, depending on the psi. Id much rather have that than a new tranny. Thanks for the idea

And replace the grocery-getting suspension the 05 V6's have in them with somethin nice while you're at it.
