Yet another new member (join date 9-10-10) who obviously doesn't "understand the show". Perhaps you could spare yourself the obligatory public crucifixion by taking time to skim over the entire site, check into the mandatory reading for new members, and find out the "Who's Who" around here before you get the absolute shit thoroughly slapped out of your dumbass. Should you, however, not wish to simply take the time to do these simple tasks.......then simply step out in front of a speeding truck so we don't have to deal with your drivel any further.

Fuktard.

Thank you sir, I really am flattered that you have taken the time to post back with the "Do you know who I am?" speech. Hopefully this helps when I say that I don't give a f*ck. The only way you earn respect in my book is to be cool, and not cut down every motherf*cker you come in contact with, just to show them your the chunck of corn on the top of the shit pile.

Now look ass clown, your thread jacking a tech post because you obviously feel the urge to lick my balls or something. Once agian I must remind you that I don't bat for that team or feel the need to open hand bitch slap any of your nut swingers.

Go lay in a corner in the fidel position and jack your self off Mr. 12,000 post....

That would be "fetal" position, dumbass. You're too goddamned stupid to even insult someone correctly.

Perhaps you don't fully recognize the scope of stupidity within which you are operating and the pathetic assumptions you seem to be making based off of some tattered sense of superiority. Along with the repeated references to homosexuality you seem to impart upon others which blatantly demonstrates your repressed urges to partake in such deviant behavior. Once again, I will simply state that if this is the direction you wish to take with each of your posts because you got your feelings hurt over a post then perhaps you would be more welcome on some whiny-assed, momma's boy, diaper wearing site such as the collective or TMS.

To break it down in the most simplistic of terms so even a low-life, pond scum IQ-sporting loser such as yourself could understand.........get the fuck out, punkass. The OP has come to terms with this site and now understands how things work around here. If you cannot.....then don't go away mad.....just go away.

As has been stated with 400 already and a 200 shot I doubt the 5R will hold up for very long. Give SD a call and talk to him about the new PA built 5R and see if he thinks it will hold that power. The biggest thing is the torque hit with the 200 shot, that is very hard on the trans.

You completely forgot about the 4R70W!! Considered by most to be the best upgrade for automatic trans that people use on strip/street..

Only by the ones who haven't tried a TH400 or PG... Let's see... for me at 700 rwhp - 3 4r70 failures. Now, at 1000 rwhp with a TH400 - 0 failures and still going. The only thing I had to replace after about a 100 passes was a $35 trans brake soleniod.

OP - spray the 200 and you are going to lose more than just the POS 5r55... period. I don't care how you control the shot, window the shot, or step the shot - the simple truth is the 5r55 is a basic street car everyday trans. If you want to have a race car, get a race trans...period. Trying to magically rework and rebuild it into something it's not is a waste of time and money IMO.

Every single shop that talks about their built 5r55's and how great they are - just keep reading their posts and threads and you will see something in there along the lines of...

"couldn't make the last pass cause the trans started to go..."

Then you'll see something like...

"but we have over 100 passes on this stock trans..."

The 5r55 is a STREET TRANS and no matter what you do to it, if you use it for RACE applications, it is going to break - just know that going into it.

Notice I said STREET/STRIP trans. Most people don't run 700+WHP on the street, and I don't know anyone running a TH400 or PG on the street. I said 4r70W is a nice compromise between the two, eventually if you start getting that high in horsepower, there isn't much compromising left..

DEPENDING how high you want to go, this may or may not be an option for you..

No, it is not useless. Mark is scaring the shit out of guys with street cars.

The real question should be....."Am I going to be making 800+hp????
