Don't know how much power your auto tranny can hold however. I would assume you should be good for at least 50HP or so, and those are free anyway on a 12V. I'm more of a stick guy myself...

slide your afc housing and fuel plate all the way forward.
pinch off wastegate line or get an adjustable boost elbow.
maby crank up the star wheel.
you should be good with your tranny

yep id maby go with like a # 10 or a 100 fuel plate.
that may be a lil much for the auto tranny tho.

if you start modifying,esp.fuel plates,and boost,it may hold for a while,but trust me it's gonna go.just take it easy,esp.from a dead start.
