autos are better for turbo, they don't lose boost, and they are better for drag racing

i've got a turboed auto...tranny slips a bit when i drive it hard...does pretty well overall..havnt installed my tranny cooler yet...

i plan on getting the TCI overhaul kit...comes with extra special clutch plates and whatnot...should grip a little better...

about your cvt...i dont think it will handle extra power very well...i've heard they are quite weak...someone fill in the info on the hx cvt transmissions for me

I'm the exact opposite lol. I have more than enough money to spend and I got a shop that makes me wait to do the work (I need the E-manage and E-01 tuned). Oh well... next week I guess.

if you wanna see a turbo'd auto, talk to me in 2 months. if you wanna see a dyno for a turbo'd auto, talk to me in 2 months and a day...ok maybe 2 months and a week. soon after getting my turbo on i will dyno it for all to see. i'm even interested what gains will be made. hoping the CAI and tanabe will help raise the numbers a little.

me too me too, I am not gonna do the k20 swap now...turbo will be cheaper and have less downtime I think...keep hearing the SF turbo kit is best for our cars, is this the case and is there a website yet with this kit for sale???
