Unhappy Automatic tranny with supercharger?

Will a Downing Atlanta Supercharger kit work on an automatic tranny?

but y would u get an SC with an Auto trans.. !
the car would gain a lot but the down-shifting with the manual is much faster and
u'll feel there is a big difference between the manual and the auto.. !
I dunno ur car nor ur tranny.. !
it might be the 4-spd Autobox which would be rubbish on the DASC kit ...
with ur money u wont get what u want... !
the manual is much better if ur running with ur car

Sorry, I was being the "grammar police." Your posts will be easier to read if you use real words and complete sentences. More people are going to respond to your questions if they can understand what you are asking. Not trying to slam you, just an FYI!

BTW...I installed the DASC on my car when it was an automatic. It worked great. I recently did a 5 speed swap and your are correct, the 5 speed is MUCH better. If you are stuck with an automatic, the DASC does help a lot!!

My friend had this set up and loved it. I do have to tell you though that he did a manual tranny swap after he drove my car that was a stick with a DASC.

Hey, if you can handle a 15-20 hour supercharger install, you can handle a 20 hour tranny swap right? Get the supercharger, then decide if you want a manual transmission. Really the swap isn't that difficult.

Wow, I just realized how much time I've got into my car, it's crazy!
