I can never seem to find many people running automatic transmissions on turbo setups.

I plan to do a small boost project with a sohc automatic next year. Small boost, small turbo, simple as possible for passing power on the highway. I can easily do an FMU and BTM or an AFC with larger injectors... or even an additional injector setup.

But which one would be best for both engine and reliability ?

I do not want to go as pricey as an AEM EMS for what is essentially a 6 psi setup... but experience counts more than anything. Does anyone have a recommendation from prior experience with auto's ?

I don't seem to be able to find any documentation of hondata or crome, etc supporting automatics as they don't seem to control the auto's ecu... what's my best option ?

** No, I don't want to do a manual swap on this car.

 

call your tuner and see what he recommends

 

is the car obd1 or 2?
1's have a separate tcm done they? i cant remember.

either way a good tranny cooler and a fan for it may be your friend. but you will be on borrowed time with the squishbox.

 

emanage ultimate

 

The new AEM piggy-back unit would be perfect for you.

Stay away from e-manage unless you have a good tuner close by. Greddy tech support is ****.

damn you beat me to it, and hell yes greaddy tech support sucks! so does apex for that matter.

keep in mind i am suggesting emanage ultimate, not the crappy old regular emanage.

 

i know its $$ and you already ruled it out.. but you would have to wire it all in, but the aem ems can directly control the tranny, but the soleniods require too much current from the drivers so a peak/hold injector driver box would be needed to drive the soleniods. it works very well in fact...
