MADMAX, did you ever find this info?
Hot Rod had an article a few months back about the high flow cats, and several months ago had some stuff about crossover pipes.
Thanks

it holds up pretty well provided there are no MAJOR power adders... like a turbo/supercharger or NOS

after one of those; the strength of the tranny depends on how often you drive full throttle with full power, etc

What about putting a Lexus/Toyota 5-Speed in the car, like from the SC300? Considering it's OEM equipment and all that.
