If you had a 5speed, I would say go ahead. The automatic is not ready for gobbs of power in 1st and 2nd - 3&4 are OK. The problem is when you are going 45mph and decide to floor it. The tranny will down shift to 2nd and you will suddenly over torque little pieces parts. Then you will buy a 1997 tranny and break that one too.
My 850T will break loose the snow tires on dry pavement at 20mph. Must be fast enough for my car.
