98 Civic D16Y7 Auto Trans Turbo
Hi I am new to this site and I have a question regarding putting a turbo onto an automatic ek civic with a d16y7 engine in it. I know it sounds crazy but could it work without blowing up the auto transmission? How would I go about doing such a thing? Engine and transmission still runs strong and has been very well taken care of. The only things I've done to the car is replaced the stock air intake with an aluminum cold air intake and put an aftermarket exhaust on. No headers, stock exhaust manifold and the throttle body is the y7 throttle body. These modifications added no horse power but I thought it would be more efficient for the car. It also has an aluminum radiator but that's about it. Listen I'd be perfectly happy with 120hp but if I can get 180 or above with the auto transmission that would rock my world. Most people would say convert to manual or do a mini me swap to a y8 head and throttle body but I don't have the tools or the technical know how to do either of those things. Bottom line is I want 120hp out of this y7 or above.
