~Im running just 13-15 PSI, a friend said that seemed extremely low for what this car is, so... is it?

Get dyno'd with air/fuel readings from a tuner that knows what they're doing. Don't listen to a friend that doesn't know anything.

~I have ALOT of motor oil blow out of tranny hole where shifter is?

I assume you're talking about transmission fluid? Take your shift knob off, pull off the trim, and check where it's leaking from. There should also be a rubber boot underneath the regular shift boot that keeps much of that oil in. Make sure that's not torn.

~BIG~QUESTION~ What kinda transmission works in these cars? I need one.. badly.

How do you know you need one badly? Are you sure most of the tranny fluid hasn't leaked out and is causing grinding? Have you checked the fluid level or replaced the fluid yet?

For what transmissions work, look what you have and search around if you want to make something else work.

~My speedo hand jumps and hops around?

I'm sure there's posts on this out there. Search. Search. Search some more. Is it only the speedo hand? Is it stock cluster? Could be electrical, the sensor, the cluster...

~Car kinda studders when it starts making boost in like 3rd gear?

See my response to your 1st question. Pay attention to aftermarket gauges if you have them.

~Early of a morning it idles between 1k, an 2k...that normal?

See my response to your 1st question again. The ECU generally accounts for cold weather / cold starts. The engine could rev to ~1.5K during warm-up and slowly come down to ~800 when fully warmed. It should not be bouncing between 1K and 2K.
