I hope you put a tranny cooler on that thing (a lot lot of idiots dont)...and having a tranny temp gauge would be helpful in spotting problems before they happen.
Ya,
i got a tranny cooler. Thats the first thing i did but i am thinking about gettting me another one to make it cooler. I got the acura rsx type-s rail. Thats what i had to get my injectors for too. 25-111

the tranny will take it, keep it auto and show the m/t guys they suck 
5 or 6 months on 4-5psi 5,000 milles and did not have an issue with the auto tranny. i sold the turbo and the tranny still runs just fine now. infact i had more mettle bitts in my tranny oil when i did my first oil change before i got it turboed and the oil change i did after i got it turboed had a lot less bits in it.

Did you have a problem with it not changing gears really quick and holding out for a minute? I need an upgraded valve body or something. Also who else has an auto tranny running boost? How much boost are you running? and does it hang when it changes gears?
mine actualy shifted the same if not faster, it smoothed out the shift for some reason.
a guy ran 14psi by acident on here i cant think of his name and it had major shift lag but the tranny was fine. as i have aways said the people on here do not give the boosted auto tranny guys credit and always say the trannys gona break. but then again i have had no issues with my tranny and i know a lot of 2001 civics had issues with them even when compleatly stock
also there are a few companys that have upgraded auto trannys
level10 is one and i know there is at least one other but cant think of the name off the top of my head

Ya well see my buddies is300 shifts the same as mine with no noise or nothing. He got an upgraded valve body and now it shifts hard and quicker than it used too. Same thing the wrx in an automatic they shift hard. If you dont feel it kick in and throw you in the seat then it is not engaging imediatly
Last time I had this much fun some furniture got broken!
