honestly i dont think i would ever turbo an auto unless its semi-auto i love being able to shift but others dont care about controling rpm's really its not a waste no matter what you will gain hp. a boosted tc is a great tc but i dont think it will work with max efficeincy without a lot of $$$ for custom tuning

I started with an ebay kit and really been easy on the car. After I got enough money all I had to do is start swapping parts out with quality parts before things began to fail. Now I have all quality stuff at still a MUCH cheaper cost than getting a brand name kit. ME FTW! Chalk that up to doing a lot of research and homework.

I think you can use a ebay turbocharger and have no problem if you use a good BOV and Wastegate!
