if u wanna stay with an auto u could give level ten a call they can help u with the auto. u could get a greddy turbo kit they are pretty cheap and with some transmission mods u would probably be happy with it.

I have a 94 EX Supercharged and it's an auto... They normally don't like a lot of torque. I have no idea why mine hasn't gone yet. Do not under any circumstances drive it like a manual. I/H/E shouldn't be any problem for the transmission, they really don't overload on the torque. Also, don't shift into any gear with the car moving.. I've seen people shift from Reverse to drive at idle all the time, I cringe when I see that. Be nice to your transmission and it will be nice to you..
