how much hp can an auto take?
 
does anyone know how many bolt-ons i can do before i blow the auto. trans? or can i supercharge it and keep stock trans? i heard turbos blow it up easier. any suggestions? also on a side note... anyone know of a good replacement coilover kit for my car? my springs are starting to squeak. trying to upgrade suspension all around (only driver front suspension squeaks as of now). thanx for info

as far as the suspension is concerned kyb and koni are great shocks, I loved my h&R cup kit (koni adjustable shocks with H&R springs).... as for the auto tranny a few people on here have a turbo on theirs but I probably wouldn't go over 200 hp without an intercooler on the tranny.... that's just my personal opinion though....

How much are you looking to spend on a coilover kit? Or more like how much can you afford?

the automatic in a 94-97 accord can handle approximately 230hp reliably before you have to beef it up (people mate 200+HP h22/23a to them and they seem to be just fine
