Okay so there's this kid at my school who has, i think, a 7th generation accord. He has automatic tranny with a Type R badge. shows off at school trying to go hella fast. Well my friend, who knows him and has him on facebook, told me he just bought a turbo for it. Posted a picture on his facebook and this other guy commented and started talking about it. Now i dont think there's Type R for that generation accord. Also read a thread on here saying that it was bad for an automatic transmission to have turbo because it cant handle the power, that it puts alot of stress on it. But i know that some cars out there come stock with turbo and has a turbo in it.Tell me if the information in the conversation is correct or not. here's their convo and a pic of the turbo:
