Can you upgrade pulleys and flywheels on automatics?

Rep Power: 0 We got a torque converter instead of a flywheel. We can upgrade that, it was in honda tuning mag a few months ago. But for pulleys, they are the same as on a manual tranny. They are located on the opposite side of the engine.

Rep Power: 0 Hmm forgive my ignorance, I thought the torque converter replaced the clutch in an automatic? Don't they say that a car "has 115hp at the flywheel?" Are you SURE automatics don't have flywheels?

Rep Power: 332 yes, automatics have flywheels. That's what your starter spins to turn the engine over during starting. Pullys are a definite mod to look at, if not for hp, for engine life and strain.
