First off to Blue98Gs3. You never paid my friend for the interior you bought from him. Not cool. I've never refused to help anyone on this forum before, but you'll be my first exception until you resolve that with him.

I run approx 750rwhp daily through my trans. I was spinning my 305/30-19 Michelin PS2 tires going around 100mph on the highway! I'm going to be going with a V160 and a Carbonetic Triple pretty soon to hold my power goal of 1000-1100rwhp...no way in hell the auto is going to hold that power. I'm already seriously pushing the limits at 750rwhp+.

There's no shift lag on my trans because the valve body was modified correctly. Only time it doesn't shift right is if the VB is not tweaked correctly or the sensors and electronics aren't setup correctly.

Jeff, I do not want you to think that. I did send a check to your buddy, I just had some financial trouble due to medical expenses. You can check with him but I'm 100% positive I sent the check.

That's good to know that the stock tranny can at least hold that much power. How much I'd it run you to have the stock tranny upgraded?
