Upgrade the clutches and get a custom separator plate with smaller check ball holes, get a torque converter with a higher stall, and BLAMMO! Instant performance transmission

Okay, maybe there's more to that, but I hate working with automatic transmissions so much that I don't even want to think about what you'd need to do internally to fully build one.

Automatics are actually faster than manuals when they're modified correctly. Just throwing it out there.

*edit: not saying I'd ever want an auto no matter how fast it is. I'll take the fun of manipulating a clutch over letting the car do its own thing any day.
