alright thanks everyone. so u think the manual trans would help solve a lot of the problem?

Again, find out what the problem is before you try to throw expensive parts at it. A manual trans would fix it if your current trans is where the problem exists. In that case, however, a new auto trans would fix it just the same. Like I said, fix the base problem before you start modding.

The problem is his stock gears combined with 32" tires and an auto tranny.

alright i will look into it. should i be getting better gas mileage than 13 tho? and the tires arent on yet, im putting them on next weekend.

That's exactly my point, he doesn't have the 32's on it yet. It's totally stock and only getting 13 mpg and NO power. That is not normal. I had better gas mileage than that with a leaking FPR.

If you have no power and no gas mileage totally stock, you will only lose more of both if you put 32's on it. Once you fix the main issue, lower gears and bigger tires will be much nicer, trust me.
