Anyone with an AT turbo?
 
Has anyone here installed a turbo on their AT and found any issues with it? Blown torque converter? Messed up transmission? Thanks.

Full blown has an auto on E85 pushing over 400whp.

no blown torque converter, jacked up transmission, or any issues at all as of yet,

push 11 psi through it via an AVO kit. around 15k total miles or so.

will advise once i'm at 16 psi.

Stage 1.5 AT correct. BRZRanger is too, but we're waiting on some new stuff for him. :)

I didn't remember you were auto!!

Fuel pump holding good??

killerkid08 05-22-2013 07:45 PM

holding good and rich for now, got my 8psi actuator on order, and working on looking for upgrades for AT reliability. (if nothing is going wrong, the only thing that can happen is bad, which must be prevented at all costs, lol.)

P&L pushed it over 17psi on their auto. Paul was saying that the torque converter lags at that boost.

Our's is still running strong. Even though a girl owns it, she's not the typical girl who babies her car.

not trying to peep under someone's hood without asking, but its for the community.
