SpeedyGonzalez 08-03-2006, 08:33 AM would it be worth it to do that to an automatic? evosky 08-03-2006, 12:39 PM hey, i have an automatic too, and i'm looking to boost in a year or two. of course it's worth it ! do it man. let me know how it works out. just be ready to do more maintenance than a N/A car. and spend more money. ProshopXB 08-03-2006, 12:41 PM would it be worth it to do that to an automatic? Plain and simple answer.... Yes. It may not be as quick as a manual turboed xB, but it will still be one super fun car to drive. Simplyscion 08-03-2006, 09:30 PM sure, why wouldnt it be worth it to turbo an auto? metal112524 08-04-2006, 05:02 AM hell yes, cant wait till i can. rollhard 08-04-2006, 10:59 PM Over the past 15 years. One thing that I have noticed is that Toyota really does overbuild their transmissions. It will take a lot more abuse and tq than what our engines are making now. onionescion 09-04-2006, 06:10 PM make sure to use an trans oil cooler. onionescion 09-04-2006, 06:11 PM make sure to use an trans oil cooler.

I would install a trans cooler and go to synthetic trans fluid to keep the heat down. http://www.morethantires.com/i//Cooler.JPG http://www.morethantires.com/i/Vehicles/Cooler_Kit.JPG metal112524 09-04-2006, 08:08 PM oOOOo sweetness rocket, how much was that 100-300?
