how hard is it to make it work ?
considering the map sensor, the faq did not mention any of this so i did read , and i dont see any other posts talking about this

I dont think it would be any different than putting a turbo on a manual

^ You'd think that, but you'd be wrong

Autos have far less room to work with than the manuals. I couldn't figure out a way to route my pipes over the engine, so I'm going under it. I'm also relocating my battery to the trunk for more room, and will be eliminating my A/C sometime soon as well.

MAP sensor shouldn't be any different than the manuals. Some people need check valves, some get away without it.

problems like engine fires and such from not routing stuff properly? Been there done that. I have removed my AC, Rerouted my brake booster line. My heater core lines . My power steering lines. and my fuel lines. I have nothing back there anymore due to the fact I don't want another engine fire. Autos have no room to work with. So yes the install of a custom turbo kit is much more difficult to make work. Oh, and my battery is in the trunk too.

^ Look at it as a challenge, not a setback. Some things are harder, but in reality, the manual's have thier issues too.

all fun and good projects call for some work...especially turboing a car idc if its auto or 5spd its all work and a challage but fun and pays off in the end. in the begingin i was like f*** this no im almost complete and each time i go back to do the finishing touch im so happy..even though like everyone said its more work on an auto ull love it in the end. but w.e u want good luck. im just sayin cause u get a curve ball thrown even tho u can still do it dont just stop..follow through.
