There's some pretty interesting mods to be had for AT's out there. I'd do some searching on this lively site of ours to see what people have tried and their impressions on the result.

^^^^^ This. If you change the FD then there is a good chance that the automatic will be quicker than the manual. Many of the automatics produced today achieve faster 0-60 and 1/4 mile times than their manual counterparts.
If I bought a automatic FR-S this would be the first mod I did.
