Trans Question.......

First off, hey everyone… This is my first post here… I feel like i will get lots of help here… First let me tell you what i’m doing… I have my second 90’ teg… I am building a b18a1 engine with forged 8.5:1 low comp. piston’s and eagle h beam rods… I’m working on getting a better crank than factory… I’m going to use a skunk intake, crower stage 2 cam’s, ported and polished head w/ major work, obx high flow cat, blox fmu, turbonetics t3-60, 35 mm wastgate, adjutable stage 2 bov, high flow 28"x6"x3.5" intercooler…
I have not decided on injectors and ecm managment yet… I have one problem, My transmission… This tegra came with an automatic… I was told there was a guy a few towns away that could make it work like a manual and shit strong… Is an auto ok or can it even get it hopped up… thanxs for any info…

:ban:
wtf u thinkin? edit your post.

BE NICE!!!

first off what I would do, If you have all the money to do all what your doing right now, I would just convert it to manual. he can probably beef up the torqure converter but as far as the gears, I doubt it. that’s all Honda right there( dealership stuff). but my .02 is Auto to Manual conversion.

woah hey now. A Teg AT is not so bad!! It may not be able to handle 2X more power, but I say build your car up and run it. Then, IF it blows up the AT, then consider doing a MT swap, or better yet, just get a MT car and swap the parts over to that.

IMO, the AT gets a bad rep, but there are no other Honda AT’s that accelerated as quickly as a Teg in the early 90’s, other than maybe a 92+ Prelude Si AT.

But, a reality check, you’ll probably blow it up. Might as well see what that old AT can do. And don’t waste any money beefing it up. AT’s are very expensive to modify, and like others have said, will likely fail later on just the same.

:roll: :roll: Well first off, Kraze chill I said i was new… And edit what… your language… well thanks anyway for the help guys… i’ll see if the change is possible. or maybe i’ll just see what it can take… i’ll still need help later… any ideas on injectors and ecu… thanxs again…

he said edit because you use 10 periods inbetween sentences, only 1 is needed
