Sorry, not same same. You'll need the appropriate version for the transmission that's on the car.

If you look at my thread about fitting Phat's dump, you'll see the auto tranny in the way of the pipe path (I was one of the earlier guinea pigs for Phat's dump and he had made a dump pipe modeled from a manual). They had to cut the pipe and re-do the piping to work around the tranny.
