That is good to hear. I was looking into this set up earlier today, seems interesting but i do not know how it would hold up. PATC 6 speed 4L80-E

If they make a computer for the 6R then i will wait for that. I do a lot of highway and some long distance drives and having the 5 speed is nice, a 6 speed would be even better. I really do not plan for more than 500-600 RWHP because i do not see myself needing any more than that.

At this pace it seems like the single kit on a stock motor would have to be capped off at 5 PSI for fear of reliability issues with the trans and rods. I would not mind it but just the thought of having an extra 5-10 PSI left on the turbo after the cap is insane.

Thats what troubles me. With Bobby already pushing the single kit to 450+ RWHP on sub 8PSI it makes me wonder what i should do. I have been looking into many built 5R55S transmissions and most of them do not post any numbers as far as torque and HP. I think only one says it can go up to 800HP...

This is actually getting a little scary. You are showing us a kit that could basically beat out a Kenne Bell Mammoth or Roush TVS for almost half the price! It is insane. Makes me feel like moving into a 4R70W would be worth the sacrifice of the cushy 5 speed 5R55S.

My plans are to go with a single kit, Boss 5.3L shortblock, and i was considering a Level 10 transmission rebuild. The rebuild kit would include, valve body, oil pump, new servos, clutches, bands, and a new input shaft. Would that be enough or should i be looking at just keeping it under 8psi. i...

Seeing as more people are getting this turbo kit, i have a question for the ones running it on an auto. What type of torque converter are you running and are you seeing any problems with 5R55S and the turbo kit? What do you recommend to upgrade first to keep up with the turbo as you move up...

If I could get this car there I would do it in a heartbeat. But finances are not doing so well right now. I hope someone one here with an auto can chime in close to your area.

Have you guys had an auto in the shop to test the kit on? Do you think it will work in theory?

Do we still need the 07+ coolant setup for 05-06 or does this new system not require it?

I just checked out Brooks Speed, anyone know if the tuner he sells is just one tune or is it 3 when you buy an X3 from him? I usually like to keep an 87 or 89 Eco tune for when i travel since some place do not go up to 93 and only have 91. Plus having an 87 or 89 Eco is nice when 93 decides to...

That happens a lot, back when i was getting my tunes from Chris Rose he would always be in the shop tweaking away at tunes. Most of the time i would call the shop and they would just tell me to call the dyno shop cause CR was over there with another car so i always had tunes that were nothing...

guess i got spoiled with Doug and CR. Both did not have problems supporting new mods, heck even Doug gave me a guarantee that if i ever did cams or full bolt-ons he would send me the files but then again that was in 2007. From a business stand point i see what you mean. Well then let see what...

The last PM i got from him said this... I do admit he is my #1 on list of good tuners but in a way i see his thinking. Getting a custom tune from him requires time and a sort of skill to be in touch with what each vehicles needs. With that i do not see a point doing his type of remote tuning...

I was about to post "i might as well be in Mexico lol" But it is still about an 8-9 hour drive for me to get to dallas. But it is true if you want it done right might as well do it right the first time. I wonder how these guys are with custom stuff like if i were to take them the car after the...
