Default Transmissions(T56) Opinions

My tranny currently is junk, plain and simple. Grinds every gear and won't even go into 3rd at all and will pop out of any gear. My plan was to buy a RPM Transmission, but I am wondering what others think. My mods are in my sig and I also plan on a 100shot maybe and hopefully a 150shot and hope to upgrade the rear as well. Should I just have mine rebuilt with upgraded parts or buy a already done up tranny? I wasn't however suppose to pay for it fully, but the dealership is giving me a hard time about helping with the repairs or whatnot. So if I am spending my money on the tranny I wanted something that is going to last.

are you sure it isn't a hydraulic problem?

I'm not sure. At first it was only grinding in 3rd gear. So in the past 2-3 weeks its worse. As it grinds all gears and won't go into 3rd at all and pops out of gears. There was a time or two where I couldn't even get it out of gear.
