Smile Who runs a T56 with BIG power??

I want to road race my car and am curious as to how well a built T56 handles the power of turbo cars. I have over 800 rwhp. Would you recommend just staying with my T400/10" Niel chance converter?? Or would I be happy with a swap to a manual? So far I love the auto, but it is not to great for road racing with the limited gear selection and freewheel 1st, and 2nd gears. I also like my Trans brake that I would be giving up.

My main concern is swapping to a manual only to find out it breaks constantly and is too hard to drive under boost. What are your thoughts and experience???
