No point in doing a swap into an automatic unless u have some sort of manual tiptronic transmission which are crap in my opinion. See the GSR kicks into vtec and makes its maximum power at high rpms. In an automatic u'll never reach it. It would be a waste of time. why do you think vtecs, excuse me, dohc vtecs were made manual, for this reason. Now a days the 97-01 preludes and the base RSXs, accords, and practically the whole Acura line up take advantage of this fact by installing a tiptronic automatic transmission in their new cars. Your best bet is to supercharge because she will significantly loose torque from a gsr installed in an auto, the gsr swap in a auto will actually be slower than the gs. So supercharge, trust me on that!
