H23 with auto tranny

Hey guys, I was wondering if my H23 could be turboed with an auto tranny. I know I wouldn't be able to run a lot of boost on it. There's another problem too, the engine has 194,000km's on it, so I guess a turbo on this engine would be out of the question unless I swapped it out for a low mileage H23 eh? TIA.

Peace

If it can be done I'm gonna save up and start reading up on my project

well it can be done no problem...why buy another low mileage h23?...all you need to do is rebuild the whole bottom end,,,you are gonna have to do that anyways if you want to run with high boost...and who says that you cant run high boost with an auto tranny....you can build up the auto tranny as well to withstand the abuse....recommend www.levelten.com

Ya I might as well just rebuild this engine, I plan to keep it a long time anyways. Is Levelten under any lawsuits from the Supra owners? Don't wanna be around when the **** hits the fence man.

Peace

i dont know about the lawsuits....they quoted me before that my auto tranny can hold up to 850hp with what they are gonna put in there...the only thing is that they are gonna rebuild the torque converter, add the pts system and the hydro stuff...in any case i actually trust them for some reason...i havent been there yet but i'm hoping to try it...they are the same people that built craig paisley's 8sec supra...

well i was gonna go with an fmax kit...but now i've decided on getting a custom turbo instead...i'm just gonna start buying small parts here and there and the only thing that i might have to order is the manifold which i might just order from fmax itself...for the piping and everything...i'm goin to this place in trenton nj where they do pipings...and me and my friend are gonna install it..
