Default 08 ex v6 sedan

hi i just bought my new accord about two months ago. it's an 08 ex v6 sedan. it handles pretty well for it's weight and its got a nice stock set-up, quick pickup and tops at about 125. i plan to have my stage one (exhaust, intake, and engine tune) done within the next month or two and within the next year i plan to get a turbo set up in, but that's got to wait until i have the money. my only problem is that it is the stock auto tranny and i know that it can't handle much more power than it has since it tends to over-rev a bit when running in higher gears. i was thinking of trading it in for a 6spd coupe because of the weight but when i looked it up, the sedan is only about 350-400lbs heavier. once my car is over 300hp, i figure the extra weight could actually be plus for added stability. so the subject in question is whether i should keep this and do a tranny swap, or should i switch down to the 6spd coupe? does anyone have any suggestions on this area to help me out?
