My question is this I have read the turbo list above and I believe its for a 5 speed so my question is this I have an 03 Cavalier Eco its an auto.... i have been going back and forth between 3800 swap or turbo and at this point in time i would like to do a turbo... is there anything different for a auto... such as fuel managment and that kinda stuff?
Check out my registry for more information about my turbo auto ecotec setup. Charge pipes have to be ran a little different from the 5 speed. Everything else can be done like the 5 speed. Have fun!! Its a fun car once turbo'd.

No one mentioned this yet, but the down pipe may not work if you're using a kit made for a 5 speed.

Ah, the good ole, gigantic auto! The main problem with fitment on an auto is the stupid casing of the differential, where it runs over to the passenger half shaft. The manual trans has so much more room its ridiculous!
Failure is not failure if you learn from it
any one have pics?
i was hoping to get pics before i attempt, but it looks like ima have to attempt without the pics and then post my pics....
pics pics pics!!!
