ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    maybe a lil lower like 6-7 cuz i don't think auto can handle cuz it might blow soon though i have seen one cb7 with 8 psi auto F22a6 it was really beast it went from the lil engine that could to the engine that did!!!!!!

              You run more of a risk damaging the auto if a turbo is fitted.
              It has been done before, but I'm not sure how long the autos last.
              Boost Lee had an auto, then he swapped it out to a 5speed after it blew up.
              It is almost guranteed that the life will be shortened, especially on an auto trans that is already 15+ years old.

              I think you would be happier doing a 5speed swap, while also potentially saving your wallet in the long run

              If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end.

                ^^ yep

                i was puttin down 188hp/188tq when i dyno'd on 8 psi untuned. I had an external tranny cooler and drove the car like a turbo car should have been driven.

                shit blew in about 6 months. I did get the tranny used though, and it had ABOUT 200k on it. On my previous auto tranny, it had a lil higher mileage but a 45K mile tq converter, and that one seem to last a little better.

                If you wanna do it, go ahead, its been done and it will work. Just keep a 5spd swap or another tranny on reserve in the back of your mind/wallet

                    Auto Boost?

                    Brace yourselves and hope you have a 5-speed in hand.
