Is that an upgraded V2 trans? Are the V1 T56 and the V2 TR6060 interchangeable?

Sounds like you have one hell of a build, first the E-Force and now this...have you given any thought about doing a thread on everything when you're finally finished?

The TR6060 is also known as T56 "bulletproof" so I'm not surprised if the internals would just work fairly easily.

Nice! Please post a review of that clutch after you get it installed, I'm very interested.

East Coast Performance has the internals from a TR6060 along with some upgrades dropped into a T56 body. He usually posts on CF.

Ill do a build thread when its finished.

So far Ive swapped an LS3, E-Force, LS9 Cam, TR6060, Mantic, G-Force 9", Kooks, Corsa, Penske Coil Overs, MAP TA, and some other stuff. Im still waiting on my Super Chiller. Then a tune from Pat G and its off to paint.

You're going to do a E-Force build thread, right? Right?

any chance you got a vid of your car so I can hear the tvs running. Saw a youtube vid of a dyno of the tvs unit but cant really hear it too well. Was wondering what the whine sounds like on an open road compared to the maggie. Still cant imagine it being nearly as pronounced as a procharger unit though...

178 miles and all is well. The mantic 9000 clutch is pretty stock in pedal feel. Im still breaking in so no launches to test the grab.

I pretty much forget its not stock.

The whine, grind, and vibration from my old t56 is gone though. Car is nice and quiet except for a little TVS whine when cruising. The TR6060 is like shifting through butter in comparison
