I was reading about the Boostlogic holding around 700hp, not sure about that.
Since the Th400 only has 3 speeds and it's some what a "drag tranny" is it suitable for daily driving and what not.
Whats the difference of the
A340
A350E
A343E
?

dang that kit is very costly
What are the significance changes in a built auto?
As of rebuilding a stock tranny would it be better to rebuild a Sc3 or supra tranny?

You guys don't know what you're talking about. One way or another a built Toyota transmission will go. It's like a time bomb. Boostlogic or not.
Go with TH400 or it's modern 4 speed version. Sound Performance is selling a new transmission kit. It's little pricey but works awesome. It's TH400's modern version. It's 100% automatic 4 speed and is controlled by AEM EMS.

As of purchasing a Chevy transmission, should i be cautious about mileage on the transmission and year/usage? Also what would be a better choice, a rebuilt one or stock.
I found a rebuilt 4l80e for $700 / TH400 Turbo-HydramaticTransmission for $140, does that sound realistic? Do they really go that cheap.
-Thank you very much, sorry for asking so many questions.

I read your post.
And im starting to save up, hahaha, Just kidding.
BUT ! the one question that roams my mind is it worth to swap in a
4L80E it 7,500 + installation 1,500. I mind as well just buy a chevy or just get a Th400 even though it only has 3 speeds and the 4L80E has 4 and a few othere stuff here and there, i mean all this for one little NA-T engine.
