if i had as much money as nelson...gear vendors would already be offering an over/underdrive for our atx. an 8-speed AWD ATX in a 3/s is the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow; imho. until that happens...it's my desire to push the ATX in my car--(with brute force $$$ if necessary) until i am happy with how i have it set. if that means that MICROSCOPIC sized atx-loving 3/s community finally benefits from my trailblazing...then so be it.
i have had it up to here with the idea that sedans are supposed to be ATX, and coupes are supposed to be MTX.

I really wonder if you are on crack by the way you post sometimes. Where are you going to put an overdrive unit on a FWD based platform? Seriously show me how you can run one and still have the front axles work.
