Auto or 5spd, makes no difference

In the classic 900T, the HP rating (160) is the same for either transmission. The Auto is harder stressed being 3spd but having owned 3 900t (two auto, one 5spd) I can assure you that with normal boosts settings you should, with an auto or a stick, boost to the yellow/red margin.
I just purchased a 94 900TC (auto) that is boosting like you indicate. I also noticed cruise control didn't hold. This weekend I plan to look at these issues but I have a nagging suspicion that both problems can be traced back to the fact that the cruise control boost limiter swich (screw) is missing and as a result it isn't holding vacuum.
Cheers,
