Turbo on an Automatic

I have a quick question for you guys.
I have a truck and thinking about installing a turbo on it.
Is a turbo on an automatic not good? That's what the guy who is planning to install it said. Is it true? How long would the tranny last?

and why could this NOT go in the same threads!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!??

you have 3 threads open.
you could have just easily asked this question in your other 2.


and without further details on what kind of truck you have, you will get no answers to your liking

I had your back for a little while.....

Why would you ask a question like this on a ACURA TL forum? I thought you were new and attempting to learn.

Thinking now you're just lazy.

But stop making new threads. This is an Acura forum, go to a Toyota forum for garbage toyotas.
