This is what all I bought, and the work that had to be done:
Madman & Co. Racing --
TH400 Kit included:
Transking TH400-Reverse Manual Valvebody/Transbrake
Transking Stall (you choose what size) with nitrous anti-balloning plate
M6 Tranny Mount (didn't need it because I was running an M6)
Aluminium Nitrous Prepped Driveshaft
Billet Input Shaft (Optional Upgrade)
B&M 28K GVW Tranny cooler/ braided hoses/ Aeroquip fittings
Madman locking dipstick/w tube
In addition I also purchased:
$200-TCI Flexplate (or ask Brian about his custom flexplate $$$)
$290-Cheetah SCS gated shifter w/transbrake button
$20-TH400 tranny mount (local parts store)
$25 ARP Flexplate/flywheel bolts (jegs.com)
$12 on washers (tranny mount shims)
$50 Autometer Transmission Temp Gauge
$10 wiring, electrical connectors etc.
$40 1 case of B&M Trick Shift (non synthetic)
$40 ARP Converter bolts
I also upgraded too:
$400 Spohn Torque Arm w/DS safety loop (stock torque arm must be changed)
The install is pretty straightforward. I highly recommend that you use a lift, as I cannot imagine how bad it would be to do this while laying on your back!!
Unknowns?--
A4 to TH400 may require some sort of tuning??
Speedometer is optional, and will require more parts and more $$$$
Plan on everything taking twice as long to complete. (shifter should of taken a couple of hours.....6 hours later it was in, and working)
I highly recommend you talk to Brian at Madman Racing.
