Re: turbo in a 98 civic w/body kit

I think turbos are cool. Auto trans though would be less fun, but u can still boost it. If u want manual, do a tranny swap.

Re: turbo in a 98 civic w/body kit

I wouldn't count on an automatic tranny lasting too long with a turbo. Its just not built for it. When boosting that transmission will shift real hard and tire it quickly. With a manual you can at least put a better clutch in and control how hard you want to shift. Its pretty easy to switch from auto to standard if you go that route.
