Ill be with you once they finally get that supercharger cheaper!....damn them

Even though I think its going to stay at 2300 FOREVER *sigh*

rvpps2rocks

AUTO TURBO..yes i drive an auto..i wouldnt get the supercharger

sako

wait the s/c is 2300 lol i thought it was 3200,but yeah i would love to get a turbo but the things is that thats it i cant really add much on to it, with s/c on the other hand i can "tweak " it a little to get more then 40hp!!!

If you are looking for 240whp with an auto, turbo will be easier and cheaper b/c you need a lot (I mean a lot) of other parts with supercharger to get 240whp.

sako

i see.. what else do i need with the s/c ? shouldnt that give me an additinal 40 hp?

and what do you guys think about mmw headers, 39hp is kinda hard to believe lol

theres not much u can do with the super charger besides pulley. FMIC if u want to spend money on it. e manage of some sort..i think if u want 240 whp u should go with turbo...plus with the super charger u will have problems with spun bearing and other things ppl complain about. i want to turbo my car

Mightygnu

you will get more bang for your buck with the turbo, but i dont know how long your auto tranny is going to last

Go turbo, either dezod's auto turbo or the regular greddy should be good for what you want. The supercharger will cost way more to get that extra 40whp for 240whp. With a tubro if you want to go more power later on you'll have more choices. If you care about warranty, resale of the car, and all that crap, go with the supercharger.

You can't replace the flywheel on an auto tc. They have a flex plate not a flywheel and its already insanely light.

GO TURBO!

Turbo, man, turbo. You know my setup!

There is no flywheel on an Auto tC.

rvpps2rocks

the only thing i heard that might be a problem with a auto turbo...is that the tranny starts to slip after 8lbs but if your giong for only 240whp then you should be right in that ball park. so no worries there

318_tC

You got it ___ backwards.

Tranny starts to slip after a certain whp not after a certain amount of boost.

You can run 20 psi but if u aint making but 215 tranny aint gonna slip.

wow thanks for the replies and yeah i did some research and i found out that my auto doesnt have a fly wheel lol, but i want turbo really bad and i really dont care about the warranty doesnt do much if you ask me u knw they make you pay for most of that sh*t anyway lol been there, and this is my first car so im gona have a really hard time giving it up lol, one more question, how is the gas milage on the turbos, i mean im looking at 30 mpg now is that gona decline by a lot or...

thanks again guys

Gas mileage depends on how you drive. I've gotten 30mpg on the highway with it doing about 75-80 for about 11 hours. I get about 23-26mpg driving around town. The lower end is when I'm in boost a lot. To me it's a lot better then I expected.

I think you should get one of these. Mad boostpower.
