I was wondering kinda HP is put to the wheels on a stock 3G?
Manual or Auto do they put down the same to the wheels?

not sure of the specs but the manual will put out more because automatics lose HP by having to spin the torque converter.... i swapped mine from auto to 5speed and it was the best performance mod yet!

i think some dude from australia dynoded it and got 85hp at the wheels. If brand new i would say around 100 hp at the wheels. BUt dont hold me on that though.

Rule of thumb:
Manual Trans : wheel hp = .85 * flywheel hp
Auto Trans: wheel hp = .80 * flywheel hp
