I've had the VX (straight up) and a 2.5" exhaust in my '88/autobox for probably 10 years. The HP/TQ range is higher but still very usable. I first put it in at sea level in San Diego, 6 years ago I moved to 7200' altitude and the little thing still has plenty of pep. I do occasionally shift manually to keep from having to mash it to downshift/hold a gear.

I'd recommend it highly. I've also used A and B cams with good results which are much cheaper.
