turbo auto s14

[edm-s14]

has any one ever droped a turbo in a auto s14 or 13? would the tranny hold the hp? would it even be worth it

[!Zar!]

How much power are you trying to make?

Any sort of big power will need an upgraded torque converter.

[edm-s14]

havent really thought about it but nothing crazy maybe run at most 8lbs of boost

but dont know where i stand yet either do the 5 speed swap but trying to way out either doing that just for it to be "stock" or do something you dont see

[silviaks2nr]

Are you talking about putting a "turbo" 350/400 trans with a gm motor or turbocharging the ka motor with a stock auto trans? Many drag cars are automatic and there are a handful of high hp 240 drag cars that are built autos.

[!Zar!]

It's pretty obvious he wants to turbocharge his daily driver with his stock tranny.

[edm-s14]

yeah talking about putting a turbo in a stock ka24de motor with stock s14 auto trany.
ik i will have to change or should say upgrade some stuff with the trany but is it worth it and would it hold the hp..and has it been done?

[ixfxi]

just go stock sr20det with stock automatic

[mowgli 240sx]

i remember some dude from the la area did a redtop sr20 swap in a s13 hb that was automatic. he wanted 4k for it.

Learn to drive stick and drop the turbo.

You should buy an SR motorset and I'll trade you my SR auto tranny for the manual tranny. It's an even trade, I swear...

[edm-s14]

thaanks for thee input but if i was going to buy a sr with trany i would just do the 5 speed swap, want to do a ka-t...and ps ik how to drive stick thanks

[edm-s14]

???? need more input worth it or not

[NissanEnthus]

Just do it and you be the judge...Even if you blow it theres autos everywhere. Its not hard to swap out for a 5 speed afterwards either way also. I remember seeing a guy on here running the S14 Greddy kit for the KA with an auto and he wasnt complaining.

I'm running a sr20det red top with auto trans in s14.. Can't drive stick being disabled..but on 15lbs on with a full-race twin scroll 3076r with bolt on's with cams.. It's holding. Stock trans. Stock driveshaft.. Carbonetics 1.5 diff. Plus I don't know the gear ratio but 2nd and 3rd kick ass. Each to there own. Only thing is get an trans cooler. There is one in ur radiator already. But also add this as an extra if ur daily driver.

Thanks for the info man, but going down another road trying to sell the s14 now

[Flicktitty]

Best of luck with the sale.

Like G-MANS14 said, trans cooler. too hot of trans fluid kills transmissions.

The nice thing about a turbo with auto trans is no loss of boost when it shifts.

!ZAR!- I don't know if I hate you or respect you for your avatar/signature choices...

I'll let ya'll know what my auto holds up to in a few months, Garrett t3/t4 60 trim .63ar with Xcessive tubular top mount and intake. Gonna see if I can get it to 300 to the wheels without blowing through the converter. Going to run a trans cooler and HD synthetic fluid. I know a 5spd would be more enjoyable on a track, but my s14 is the only car I own that actually has an auto at this point, so I just enjoy cruising up and down the highway in it. No lift boost sounds like a lot of fun too though!
