All total bull... the only way to boost MPG is to buy a better fuel efficient car. the only way to boost HP is to buy a car with more HP, or turbo your current one. LOL
Or find one with a 5 speed automatic trans. hehehe

I thought we were talking about Scions?
I have an old Mack Truck from the 1950's that has a 13 speed. It has 26 speeds if you count the Brownlipe under/overdrive and 52 speeds if you count the two speed rear axle. I've also driven an old International truck with a 9 speed Allison automatic trans.
I doubt the Scion Xd will be around long enough to get a new tranny.

7-speed autos are the norm for Mercedes these days.
