I used to own a '95 GT automatic and it ran way lower RPM's to get the same speed as my '99 GT Manual. Anybody else at 4000RPM's at 80 miles an hour? Could there be something wrong with my tranny or is it just in the gearing?
-Negative By the way my '99 manual is way faster than my old sluggish automatic which was the whole point in selling my '95. --------------------  |

I had the same experience when i did the auto to manual swap. Suddenly i was +1000 rpm at every speed, i thought something was broken too, but from what i hear this is normal with manual. the gearings are different. By now ive gotten use to it. Yes, im at 4k at 80, but as i see it now, there is still 2500 more rpm to go...
