Planning on joining the ranks of supercat and others How much should I have to turbo my car and make the other preparations to keep it running?
I know the kit is $5650 shipped, how much will I have to put into the tranny and what all do I need to do?

Oh good god get the tranny done. My tranny is stock only running 6 psi and a lot of torque management it feels like the 1 2 shift takes 2 seconds. My tuner says that is border line on what the tranny will take. Do you plan on getting the Cartuning kit or putting something together your self?

You will need an upgraded input shaft (get from Intense) and also a better chain (7/8" or go with the GM Racing Chain). Dave at triple edge did my tranny. He's in Fort Wayne, IN.
