Default turboing auto or manual

I was wondering are manual transmission more capable of handling more boost with a turbo set up im looking to getting a dezod kit in 8-9 months I own a 2013 manual tc I hear autos don't handle so good either way im all for both and is it a good idea to turbocharge a tc. THANKS

Truthfully, you can turbo either. Both are boat loads of fun to drive. However, the manual will make more power reliably than the auto. Auto trans would be the weakest link in the equation.
