they dont make much at all for that auto

oh yeah, there are much better turbos out there than a 20G, it spools slow and doesnt really make all that much power. &nbsp;something like a dsm performance ETA32 would be better... spools as fast or faster, and makes quite a bit more power</font>

<font color='#000000'>oh, and by the way,

&quot;they dont make much at all for that auto&quot;

like what? &nbsp; &nbsp;it sounds as if you're saying, since it is an auto, you cant mod it any...like there arent any or much mods available to an auto...whats the only mods not available? &nbsp;a clutch? flywheel?

confused.. <img src="http://www.illstreet.com/images/iB_html/emoticons/rock.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>

<font color='#000000'>ive never heard of any company making any of the things that are required to make an auto very good at the dragstrip such as
*higher stall torque converter
*shift kits to decrese shifting time
*stronger transmission parts to stand up to the 400-500hp the 4g63 is capable of making with relative ease</font>

<font color='#000000'>lots of companies make aftermarket torque converters for higher stalling....and of course you arent gonna hear of any companies make a shift kit for an auto, unless they are geniunely retarded...its all in money...you can strengthen an auto tranny with any amount of money, but its still gonna be a boring ride...no doubt....but, its all in decision of the tranny...manual or auto..you can mod an auto just like a manual...there are disadvantages and advantages for a manual and auto....

<font color='#000000'>they make all kinds of stuff for doemstic automatics

the eclipse trans im sure is a diffrent beast

btw a shift kit with an auto is an internal modification inside the trans that changes some routing in the valvebody, usually some stiffer springs on the pressure regulators so the car shifts itself faster and harder</font>

<font color='#000000'>automatics are complicated... a manual trans i can rebuild, an auto.. bwahhahahaaaa yeah... right <img src="http://www.illstreet.com/images/iB_html/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'></font>

<font color='#000000'>Btw my engine is a 2g, not a 4g63, and Im reconsidering the converesion, because on all the dsm websites, there are horror stories about crankwalk in manual trannys in the 2g motor. So... I dunno. I have to decide.</font>

<font color='#000000'>the autos had a diffrent motor? interesting
get a 6 bolt from a 1st gen... those are stout motors <img src="http://www.illstreet.com/images/iB_html/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

a few people have done crankwalk studies, and the leading cause of it seems to be a weak oil pump.... people that change it with the timing belt have not had crankwalk issues even after putting tons of miles and racing on the car</font>

Yeah I know, and youll be steady without a car for 4 months again cuz your trannys messed up.</font>

<font color='#000000'>ok..what the #### ever....remind me to give you my owners manual and let you see where it says &quot;its ok to change gears in auto&quot;...even says you can changes gears like a manual, but without the clutch....
