6 spd auto is too expensive and the t6 isn't much better. Maybe go the 4 spd auto, they can handle a fair bit of power (more than the t5). Get a trans cooler if your gonna be flogging it though.

A tranny cooler is highly recomended on an el stocko NA 6. On a modified turbo 6, it's a necesity - larger than factory option would be recomended to.
