Ok before anyone starts I'm 17, it's my first car.
Rules are no manual swap, no engine swap but I can do bolt ons etc...
Anyways I bought a Greddy turbo kit, trans cooler, AEM intake, BLOX manifold, BBK t-body...........

What/who makes transmission parts for the Honda/Acura's? I just want it stronger than stock like by 30% all my goal is 180-190whp and I will be happy.

Also does anyone make upgrade motor/transmission mounts?

 

Noone? I've searched with your Search for results before posting.
Saw a post mentioning TCI but nothing more was said...

 

Why is your name Ecotec and you have a honda?

Anyways not too many people "beef" up automatics, so I dont know how much luck youll have around here.

 

auto trannys just cant take the kind of abuse like manual trannys. even with 190-200whp i think itd still be pretty slow because of the gearing. i honestly dont even know how much power it can hold.

but why not a 5spd?

 

i built my brothers 4dr auto ls. not bad but it still pretty slow. its an auto i wouldnt waste time on it if it was my own. car is equip with chipped auto ecu, tranny is stock, bottom end 82mm itr pitons , resized rods, gsr bearings, polish crank, arp rod bolts, valve job, mild pnp, portmatch tb,i/m/exh with fpr, and cams gears with web cams. honestly i dont think its worth it. but i had the parts as extras so i just built it for him. drives better than stock thats for sure. but shifting makes it feel like its not full potential. now if they made a racing tq con then that would be a diff story. seen one from cusco but it wasnt made for b series and cant remember what tranny is was made for i think it was for h22

sell the car as a daily to someone that wants a auto and buy a stick shift
u will be much happier trust me

 

So I'm guessing you have rules because your parents made them up for you. Is that safe to assume? I have a 98 teg auto and I was thinking about "beefin" it up. But, like everyone else said, I don't think honda auto tranny's can take the abuse. My first was an auto and I tore that thing all to pieces. If at all possible, wait until you are 18 and they get a manual. The parts you already got will better serve you. I'm just using mine as a daily driver and one of my dumbass friends is thinking of getting rid of his because he can't keep it running. I told him its the idle air control valve. Ima just buy his probably. Good luck with your tuning.

 

Dont bother with an auto if you can I would just wait till your 18 and sell it and buy s 5 spd you will be much happier. Also you will be able to do a lot more things to it without worrying about your trans and your car will be a lot faster b/c you can control the gearing.

Sorry I couldnt help with the original question as I dont know many people that beef up an auto trans but I would honestly just save and wait if possible.

 

hey from personal experience...my car was auto i tried all the mods it was stil slow.....the best mod i did was converting it to 5-speed gsr tranny...so i say wait till ur 18 and do a 5-speed swap or get a 5-sp car.....

 

Ecotec- Chevy maybe???

Like the Cobalt... Ah, for some apparent reason I was told boosting an auto was better...

People think it's better b/c you can start boosting off the line.....not true.

The only way a automatic is better is when you get into drag racing hardcore, like under the 8 sec mark.
