Honda auto trannies are NOT good with handling any kind of additional power. If you're going to go turbo, you should highly consider swapping in a 5spd. As for videos, post 'em if ya got 'em. This should be amusing.

Well, do it and make a movie, 'cuz I wanna see how long your tranny lasts. 
There was a guy in one of the sub forums, he put a b18b in a delsol, automatic, and turbo'd it, and he claimed he went through 3 trannies in a year.

Re: (Integra_RS)
I ran a Turbo Accord for a while and the tranny only lasted 8k hard miles and it started to slip. It grenaded soon after.
From personal experience, dont mess with it, spend the extra money to upgrade to a 5spd.

I had an automatic on my teg with a stage two turbo running 9lbs. I am not kidding in anyway......my transmission lasted one week. Yes one week. In the middle of traffic one day it just gave up. It would rev and then it wouldn't grab a gear anymore. I had to push it out of traffic. OH yah i even had a B&M transmission cooler on it. Don't turbo an automatic just go straight to manual.

just dont do neutral drops.. and get off the gas a little when u feel its gonna shift and youll be fine...if ur on the gas and its spooln while shifting gears youll notice it dosnt feel good.. jus try to drive around mostly in d3 itll rev higher before it shifts.....but when im WOT just keep the pedal floored it shifts fine

Re: (autolsturbo)
for those who are considering turboing an automatic car...i consider that you guys upgrade your stock torque converter...
i've heard/seen before in a mag. that hfp(honda factory performance) offers upgrade torque converters.

if you'd never hit boost, because u drive to slow, whats the point of spending 2500 on a turbo kit if ur not going to hit boost??? not tryin to be a jackass just like to know.
