i have a few questions. i would like to pick up an auto sedan, and i woud like to turbo it. here are my questions.

1.how efficient would a turbo be on a auto (dont like shifting gears)

2.how hard would it be to turbo it?

3. what would tuning entail

4.would there be anything holding me back from turboing it?

5. what turbo kit should i get if i wanted 250-300 hp (with supporting mods of course)

6.how much boost would i need to run to achieve this

7 . what supporting mods would i get to achieve this goal?

this will be my daily driver, but i also want to have fun lol. thanks

stock 2.0 dynos at around 100 with a manual autos dyno around 75. i doubt the trans would hold up to 300 hp. do you have the 1.8 or 1.6? i would say if you want that much power from an auto look into a different car. as far as supporting mods forged motor built trans tuning i would recomend a stand alone if you want it done right and be reliable your looking at spending alot of money i would say atleast 4k if not more. figure in rods, pistons, ems would set you back around 2,000 thats not including turbo stuff machine work or tuning if you have to pay somebody to do that, and then theres beefing up the trans to make sure it can hold it. nothing wrong with turboing it but for that much power think about it is it really worth it? not trying to be a party pooper but i wouldnt but that much money into a car thats not worth half of it
