Default superchargers

If i were to Supercharge my engine which happens to be an automatic....would it rip my tranny apart or would it be ok enough to have on there... i have heard it both ways and i just want to see a recent response for it.

Use the money you were going to use for the blower and buy yourself a manual conversion, and a motor swap.

Well given Honda's design for the Auto tranny.. I have to say boosing it ( turbo or supercharger )is not the best ideal.

Usually you determine if the tranny will hold by the towing capacity, it gives you an idea of what it can handle.

I forgot about the towing capacity

i doubt you will even be able to get into the 15's with that auto tranny and a supercharger. Manual swap first
