There is a benefit to having an auto tranny for a turbo, though, because it allows you to spool up before you're in motion. So try to take some solace in that.

Until it blows up, because Honda automatics can't take power.

Hi, he already said he was going to have the tranny built up :slap:
Regardless, if he's only going for a small turbo at low boost, it won't be anything that hasn't been done before. Past members of this board have done it.

It's still a D-series trans, at best. Thanks, it's not that strong even with a modified torque converter. :slap:
