Expect approx 20rwkw loss with the auto compared to the manual on the 'same' dyno. However auto will achieve quicker and more consistent ET's. 310rwkw in street tune is a fairly big feat. Transbrake on the street is usless I know. Great with slicks on though!
If you launch using the foot brake and convertor you can balance the wheelspin and get a good take off.

Question: at what point does an auto box become quicker down the 1/4 mile?
ok to qualify that a bit, if you had two gearboxes, say a beefed up jatco 3 speed with 2800 stall, and a manual VLT box, how powerful would the car need to be so that the auto was quicker down the 1/4? assuming of course that the driver is pretty quick at changing gears and all else is equal.
