Default Boosting a Y7/Auto tranny??

Anyone like the idea? The car is going to be daily driven for my g/f. I want a little more pep to it, so I was thinking about the possibility of boost. It's a stock 1996 Black DX hatch with auto tranny. Bare in mind we are on a budget. So give me some replies guys!

Don't do it with an auto tranny. You can say goodbye to the transmission after a few monthes to a little under a year. Especially when you're on a budget, as it won't be reliable. You can save up and switch to a manual tranny tho.

Anyone think s/c or turbo will substantially compromise the life of my tranny??
