Turbo Automatic
 
Just wondering if anybody has a turbo kit in an Automatic. Cause i'm currently doing a kit for an automatic integra Ls and was wondering how automatics take boost.
Please share your experiences.

Thanks

Not much boost as I've read, but there is an automatic cavalier on this site that is Boosted...

Semnos,

Actually there is a sunfire auto too ;) lol

I'm not sure on the capabilites of your auto but ours are actually stronger than the manual transmissions.

I beleive the tranny in my car and matts are rated up to 250 ft lbs of torque :) and I've seen them take 75 - 100 shots of nitrous without a problem.

Mine as 135k on the trans and still holding strong

sucks period.

u loose alot of power through an auto trani, plus they are pieces of ---- when it comes to holding power.

if u really wanna go that route get a new tq converter.

I know that auto tranny's are not great but my friend doesnt want to change it to a manual. I guess we will see what happens. ;D He will be runing 8-10PSI.

Not really worth the money that you have to pour into an auto to get what you want out of it. Now take a TH-400 or 700r4 (raptor) and you have an ass hauling transmission, but that's after a lot of money into it. What year car? I never liked those sport shift integra transmissions anyways.
