What kind of things can you do to an automatic tranny to build up its tolerance ? Better Torque converter ? I know my tranny can take (about) 325tq max rating. Just wanting to learn a bit about these things.

 

A tranny cooler would be a good idea.

 

Gotcha, getting some tranny cooling mods aswell, just lookin at what my options are, kinda uninformed on this, so figured id asked some experienced people here on css.net

 

clutch packs

 

Interesting, im googling and reading as i type lol

 

if ur looking to do anytranny work.......TRANNY COOLER ASAP! seriously man i have a great tune on my tranny with hptuners and it kicks ass.

Yea well im doing the SC swap so want to make sure everythign has a nice safe comfort zone.

 

yeah i mean no1 has did a s/c swap..but look at the hahn turbo kit...the 2.4 guys turboin havent done any work. i would talk to celicacobalt about his turbo auto. i think he only has a tranny cooler..that is going to help out a lot. even with tuning the car.. u can tune agressive but if ur going to get on it..it will slip and do damage a t. cooler will help a lot

 

what are you talking about? theres like 3 2.4's with a s/c and even atleast 1 2.2 with a s/c
to build the tranny, all you really need are a tranny cooler and a tranny tune, but if your going over 300hp, then your going to want to heat treat the axles, probably get a LSD while your doing this, and upgrade your clutch packs. thats really it for 400hp....if you still want more, whichi doubt, then id go for a tranny swap to the 4t60 or the 4t65

 

the s/c 2.4's i know of are all stick.

 

they come auto as well...and its ss 2.4 or s/c 2.0...im assuming you meant the ss 2.4

 

the guys on here with 2.4's with the s/c swap are all stick..no auto our trannys can handle up to 300hp stock is correct

 

Yes my tranny is doing great since april with just a permacool tranny cooler and hahns tranny tune. As far as building an auto tranny I would say halfcent is the only one i know who has done this.

 

im supercharging my and im an automatic..i thought autos are stronger for boost???

 

they are. u can easily push 8psi like everyone else is running. just a tranny cooler will do the job. it brings temps down real nice. plus once u tune agressive its needed. my tranny tune is nothing nice agressive smooth shifting. once that is down and u go s/c that thing is gonna haul some ass. if u have ne other questions. pm me

 

all they need is a tranny cooler and a reflash. theyre rated 325tq from the factory, so they'll hold up mechanically.
