You can only get the turbo lite with automatic.
I had both, and actually get about a MPG MORE with the turbo lite than I did with my '02 - all on regular gas.
I just calculated overall mileage:
56,279 miles, 2,246.778 gallons of regular, 25.049 MPG!
At 50,000 miles it was 24.95, so it does creep upward.
It was around 24 even with the '02.
If you can live with an auto, get the lite - you won't be sorry.
