what's so different is that the auto is friggin huge. the auto takes up so much more space that the 5spd that its hard to get things around it.

theres also a lot more things to fail and rebuild to make it hold the power on an auto trans



I used to race cars, now I race myself.

For an auto eco, your best choices are to either supercharge (GM or RSM) or turbo (all custom). The Hahn kit can be made to fit an auto; only the IC charge pipes have to be rerouted if I recall correctly, but I wouldn't do it. Bill Hahn posted results of tests from one of their kits on an auto eco and the tranny chewed itself to bits. He said that they won't offer/recommend putting their kit on an auto until they develop one specifically for the auto tranny.

If you're looking to turbo, your best bet would be to piece together your own kit. Take a look at NJHK's thread in Photos and Media if you're interested in checking out a custom turbo on an auto eco. And remember, if you're going to boost an auto car, make sure to purchase a tranny cooler. One of the biggest killers of boosted auto's is excessive amounts of heat.
