...And you bitch about people being an ass to you when you were new and you had questions. You're and oximoron. You obviously dont know what you are talking about.

It's pretty obvious he is asking if he has to upgrade the tranny for it to be able to hold the power from turboing his car.

Answer is no, the tranny will hold. The motor will blow before the tranny takes a shit. Yes you can put a turbo on a stock 420a motor. www.hahnracecraft.com makes a good kit, check them out.

Do you even know what your talking about?
ox‧y‧mo‧ron-a figure of speech by which a locution produces an incongruous, seemingly self-contradictory effect, as in “cruel kindness” or “to make haste slowly.”

I think you meant to say:
hyp‧o‧crite-
1. a person who pretends to have virtues, moral or religious beliefs, principles, etc., that he or she does not actually possess, esp. a person whose actions belie stated beliefs.
2. a person who feigns some desirable or publicly approved attitude, esp. one whose private life, opinions, or statements belie his or her public statements.

If your going to attempt to sound smart, at least use the correct vocabulary.

Re: turbo an automatic

Well turbo'ing an auto may not let you get to higher RPMs , resulting in you not beeing able to get to the peak power of the turbo. (but if its a small turbo, im sur that it wont have much lag, and it wouldnt do much at high RPMs anyways.)

Yes I do know what I am talking about. Sorry I spelled it wrong, I type to fast.

Oxymoron = Self Contradicting.

Meaning he contradicts himself by saying how he hates the people that are an ass to him when he was new and asking questions, then he turns around and is an ass to other new members asking questions.

You can also say he is a Hypocrite. He hates something then turns around and does it and thinks everything is fine.

I used what I felt fit best. Obviously you didnt understand seeing you had to find out what the meaning was and still didnt get it. Thats what I was going for.

And we all love you too Joe.

No I did know the meaning of Oxymoron but you obviously don't, in your statement it could only make him a hypocrite not and Oxymoron. Did he use statements close to these “cruel kindness” or “to make haste slowly.”, I think not, there for your wrong. But I forgive you.

Re: turbo an automatic

Honestly, who gives a fuck who is right or wrong, and what the correct term to use was, it has nothign to do with the thread and should be dropped. Quit bitching like a bunch of little girls.

Talonesiboy, the automatic will hold the power of a turbo, but not much more than what the t25 can put out for an extended amount of time. There ARE good threads on here about turboing a 420a, but some of the good info gets lost in the junk---> (see posts 3-14 of this thread) so you just have to do some wading around. Otherwise 2gnt.com has some good info and so does team2g.com. If you're looking into doing a turbo kit yourself, check out this link. http://www.2gnt.com/nuke/modules.php...ticle&artid=85
