Hey, I'm new to the forums and I have a quick question. I have a 99 Eclipse RS Automatic, and I have done, for the most part, all the visual modding I will do, and I want to concentrate on some performance now. I have been told mixed opinions on putting a turbo into an automatic. Is it bad, or is it good? If good, can anyone please tell me who does make a turbo system for a 99 Eclipse RS automatic?

Thanks

I bet you could find the answer in "TURBOING AN RS/GS" thread, or maybe searching.

HRC is the most popular for kits.

I am looking at options for upgrading my turbo, lots of people say the auto tranny in a gst gsx will hold 300hp, so I found a site and have been quoted on a 400hp build at 3 grad excluding shipping of the core + the built one sent back you should go to IPT engenring (sorry for spelling), cause if you boost on that stock tranny it will fry.

I'd get a shift kit, a tranny oil cooler, and run it. Stock auto in Alaska ran 11.7, and there's people running build autos in the 9's.
