After the first day of driving everything feels GREAT! =) As for the tranny holding up, my initial reaction is that it should be fine given the technoligical advances from my 98 civic auto tranny. the intercooler and lastly regular tranny fluid changes. For a lot of track use, you may then want to invest in a tranny cooler. I do recommend upgrading your tranny fluid because it made a huge difference in the driveability even before the turbo was installed.
Oh and btw thats my car in the pics. 
Hope this helps. |
thnx for ur input. Nice car btw! I had a few more questions: where'd u get ur tranny fluid i wanna change mine too lol. Did u use the paddle shifters when u drove ur car w/ the turbo on or did u let the car shift itself (cuz i use the paddles almost all the time) Yeah i will invest in a tranny cooler cuz i have a brand new one in the box sitting in my garage collecting dust.
Thnx for the info. if you could, send more pix!
Oh btw s0x, no i didn't cream my pants but it was close.
