yeah, the piping for the IC is interfered with because the AT is much wider, though this can be solved by relocating the batter and bending the pipe so it fits around the wider tranny... i am suprised that the tranny can outlast the motor, hmm... gives me hope that the auto aint so weak after all.

There is another way i was going to try until my mom stopped me. But you can get a liquid to air intercooler for it. It acts like an intercooler. Here is a link maybe someone with AT will try it out. And I ordered the piston wayyyy before that happend and it just came in at the right time.

Tune your car correctly, If you want to maintain reliabilty. and an intercooler would help too. Sometimes you have to spend the extra money. If you don't have one you shouldn't exceed 6 psi with the stock pistons. The oil shouldn't make a difference
