I think it would cool to have a turbo automatic but, don't know how it would hold up.

Why do that? You could easily do the 5-spd swap on your car....

Parts Needed:
-Motor Mount for 5spd Tranny (92-95 Civics require an aftermarket mount or reweld with stock manual mount)
-Clutch Master Cylinder w/resevoir
-Clutch Slave Cylinder
-Flywheel w/bolts
-Stock Clutch Hardlines
-Clutch Kit (disc, pressure plate, throwout bearing)
-Clutch Pedal
-5 spd Brake Pedal
-Shifft Linkage w/bolts and other hardware
-Shifter
-Shift ****
-Shift Boot
-Manual Tranny ECU or chip the auto ECU
-5spd Cluster (only if your really ---- about the fact that it has the selector in it from auto tranny)

There is some very easy wiring that needs to be done, but I won't list that unless you really plan to do it.. PM me for details if you need them. If you keep your auto cluster, you will drive around with the "P" lit up on your cluster unless you remove the light bulb.. The wiring tricks the car in to thinking it is in park.

I did this swap on my car with a friend about 2 weeks ago.. The swap is very easy and self explanitory... Night and Day difference...

I say just boost the auto since people would get rid of these things like as in paying you to take them! lol. Just use a small turbo like a IHI rhb5 from a probe/mx6 or a dsm t25. The tranny cooler would be the best investment to go with to keep it working longer. I brought this up awhile ago since a friend of mine wanted to boost his auto hatch.

Does anyone offer a shift kit, are they worth it?
How different is chipping a auto ecu?
