Well, if you swap the transmissions you have to realize that the M/T is going to give you the M/T gear ratios, and the auto will give you it's gear ratios. They're intrinsic to the transmission gearbox. The swap could probably be done without too much hangup, since the car is RWD. But what I recommend, and what most people would, is trying to simply buy the car with the 5-speed from the factory.
