Stock tranny may or may not last with up to 450 RWHP. Make sure you use a cooler and have someone with edit skills that do not raise the line pressure too much!! Rear axle is the same.depending on whether you have an a4 or m6. m6's seem to tear up rear ends more often.

Add the a4 to your sig I think the stock one as long as it is cooled and tuned correctly should last a while.
