I believe I read somewhere they can handle up to 220ft lbs of torque. I could be wrong. There is a guy on team-integra.net that has a boosted auto integra. I'm pretty sure a lot of people on here are only gonna talk a bunch of ---- about autos, and dont really know anything about them. I will be boosting mine 8psi in a month or so, in the meantime I am saving for a manual...or a new car, whichever.
