Hey guys whats up?

I have a 99 civic ex w/ automatic transmission. I wanted to know wen running w/ turbo, does the gear ur or how long you hold it for affect the turbo in the spooling process in any way? I'm kind of a newb, but this guy that had turbo on his altima (also automatic) said he kinda regrets it. Does it really matter putting turbo on Auto or Standard?

Thanks:p

Ask him specifically why he regrets getting it with his automatic. Also, this same exact question has come up recently, just scroll down some, you'll see it.

higher rpm=more exhaust=faster spool up
so yes it does affect it. with a manual, u can control wen the gears change...so u can change them at high gears and maintain high rpm for more hp (keep rpm in power band)...i hear n2o works well with auto...so mayb add juice to ur auto
