Default Rsx Base Manuel vs Rsx Base Auto

If the Manuel trans only has a drop and everything else is stock what would you guys think the outcome would be against a Automatic trans Rsx with slight mods ie; exhaust, drop, air intake..

Me and my homie are having this debate cause he has the auto, I have the manuel were going to race it out soon enough but im just curious, IMO Ill beat him.. btw this debate came about cause hes flossing all these pics on facebook cause he has alot of visual upgrades and I made a comment how its a automatic (he didnt show any of the center console in the photos lol) and thats where it started...

opinions?

who cares. in the end, you both will still have slow cars.

but if you know how to drive, you will probably beat him

Agreed with the slow car thing, but I cant afford a type S nor am I going to sell my base to get it, so for now im just going to make it faster.. and I know how to drive pretty good imo.. probably the canyons

just get a good launch and don't misshift and you'll be okay.

hopefully MANUEL can run fast LOL. oh ****, my bad. I think the auto will give u a good run cause there are some automatic drivers that can get there cars to pick up as were us MANUAL drivers get in a auto and can't get it to go as fast as they do.

I drive a base auto ftl slow *** ****. But idc its my first car I actually bought by myself and it suitable for me because I have two kids and im not a good multi-tasker. But the imaginary clutch pedal rocks when I drive it in auto/manuel! Lol jk

depends if you can launch good or not, shift properly. If not then the auto will take you.
