Just turbo the sohc. You really won't get much out of anything being auto, but it'll give you more than nothing. You could even go as far as to build a d-series and turbo that. So thats just what I think would be best for your AUTO situation.

My buddy has a auto saab 9.5 turbo and I take him all day long in 1/4. I don't even have t-bo. Only because he has so much lag on take off i get him
taking off faster isnt an advantage if u end up losing the race.....Quote:

learn to read okay? when did i say i would beat one, i said i would have a better take off. both of u learn to damn read. :goodjob:
apparently u guys have your manuals stuck so far up your assholes, you are missing my point.
NEVER did i say i would race, and or TRY to beat a manual. my point was, me turboing an auto is not pointless, but it does have some advantages. they are greatly appreciated, however like i said, i am going to do what i want for my auto...never did i ask bout what anyone's in here stick does.
thnx Tony for asking the question the way I wanted.
the rest of u can lick my dunghole and choke on raw cow penis..thnx:D:goodjob:

lol damn, I wasnt trying to be a dicck, or argue. But yes we have to shift and u dont :goodjob: ... Any ways back on topic about ur swap..Quote:

YOU NEED TO LEARN TO READ. ALL I SAID IS IT WOULD BE BETTER THAN NOTHING WHICH IT WON'T BE THAT FAR FROM.
where did I say u guys said it would be pointless?Quote:

Jose...lick ma twat cumsquat. let me borrow some money too. alos elmer say my pics of me having the stickers on my car...soo =)
If its for fun I guess it really dosnt matter. But if u go the and drage strip, you will see every one revs befor they take off..Quote:

So, instead I called Tony my horny little black boy because he's black, and since he's single...he's got to be horny. B16 is my nonreading little teacher, and Mikey Mike is my drunken little white boy because liquor does him no good. I was going to tell Amber goodnite, but I couldn't find a name to match her...Brian could be the hot little guy since his car caught on fire.
btw, Amber I'm going to Spring Fling in two weeks. U think Brian minds if I borrow u for a hood piece at the show? I pay top dollar!!! Becuase right now, my engine isn't sooo cute:(
:ninja:
alright last night at work was crazy. Right by my work got hit by a tornado. It was was insane. Glad my car is still in one piece : )
damn, the only thing we got over here was lots of rain and thunder...Quote:
