Sport Shift lude

i'm looking at 2 ludes right now one is sport shift one is not.
i would like the 5 speed but the other is about 5 grand less so i thinking about going with that one

what would the drawbacks be with the auto over the 5 speed?
and man could i make it fast with 5 grand, but will the auto hold up to... lets say a 75shot of nitrous or maybe boosted turbo, SC?

please help with my desision.

actually some of the ss trany's have no problem at all. if you're going to go forced induction though, check out levelten.com. they can upgrade your trany for about a grand so you won't have any problems with the trany when you shoot nitrous or anything.

If dyno'ed an average dyno between a SS and a 5spd is 160whp to the 5spd and -30 hp to the SS which is 130.. Your choice not mine. I have a five-speed and love it.
