what is a 4l80e??????? I havnt heard of them much and have no idea what they are. I have a M6 in my car now, but was an A4 so all the wires are there for an A4. (99 transam)
whats better about the 4l80e? Major difference? how compatable is it w/ factory pcm? wires plug right in? does it use same converter as a 4l60e?

It's the heavy duty auto that they put in the trucks. It's heavier, needs an adapter for the harness, and is pretty much a waste of money to "upgrade" to because a built 4l60e can be had for cheaper. Not sure about the TC on it though.

The 4L80E is the auto you need if you plan on a true 650+rwhp. Figure on about $5000 for everything.
I have one behind my blown, nitrous 383 and love it.
I was sick of breaking the 4L60's.
