I was actually lookin into doing something like that. On the website www.autoloc.com, they have suicide door kits and Lambo door kits. Plus they have a neat split hood kit. Im not too sure about that one though. Im not to thrilled about cuttin up a CF hood just to make it open up in the from the middle. It would look good if you did it on a stock hood just to see for yourself, but I would hate myself if I did it on a CF hood and didn't like it. I bet it would look kinda neat though. To have it open up between the vents on an EVO style hood.

If you have an auto..don't even bother turbo'ing the pro..you WILL BLOW YOUR TRANNY!

If you don't have an auto..I would suggest..sticking with a turbo kit..and keeping the boost below 6psi!

Unless you get some sort of EMS..like i do!...than you are good upto 8psi!

I have an auto and people have told me its alright to turbo the Pro as long as you take the time to look and see what you need. You can safely run up to 7-8 psi on your stock internals. I don't plan on streetracing everytime I go to work, so I don't need a stage 2 or 3 turbo kit. Just something to add a little more zip to my Zoom Zoom.

Many people have blown their auto trannys...Now if you are only going to run..like 3 to 4 psi..You should be fine!

you got that link again, the one you provided is "page not found"

I want to check out those mods.

Thanks

I fixed it now. It didn't work because the link for the web address included the comma at the end. I just had to move it, so now when you click it it should work.

there is no reason why you cant run a turbo on an automatic....just requires some preperation to handle the power, otherwise you have a higher chance of blowing your tranny

acidbbg1

there have been a couple people on protege5.com that boosted their auto's and blew their tranny's!

Nough Said!

I think with the proper amount of research, you can safely boost an auto Pro. The people who blew their trannys didn't take enough precaution to protect their engines. It could totally be done, but you have ta be careful.
