I don’t plan to do any EOC with the automatic. I’m still trying to get the foot movements in sync with trans shifts but haven’t gotten it down yet. I’ll add a little pressure to try and hold a gear longer and it’ll still upshift on me. Just going to take more time playing with my foot.

Thanks Blazr. Did you run any numbers of chemicals costs vs increased MPG? Wouldn’t the 2 cycle oil eventually clog the cat?
