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:
