You have less control over where the power band is on an AT, especially ours as we can't really mod it much (easily). So it is 'tuned' to a certain power band, and it will not feel as responsive on our cars, a MT is the way to go. Unfortunately, no one has come up with a good solution (that I have seen) for us AT guys. I did like a lot of people and bought this as a commuter, and realized how fun it is...and here we are...
