Hey guys/gals, Im currently lookin for a built a4 for the z... I have it narrowed down to flt or performabuilt. I purchased a fti 3800 stall converter last summer, but the stock trans has got me convinced not to install it lol! Im not tryin to start a pissin match between the two companies...just want some opinions on why you went with that particular company and how well has the trans held up?

*If anybody thinks I can get away with stalling the stock trans, then please elaborate!! I cant make my damn mind up on it lol. It seems 50% have had good luck stalling the stock a4 and the other 50% not so lucky. I know heat is a big player and a big cooler is a must. just want some opinions on what I should do on my setup. It's Just another bolt on camaro startin out on a 100 shot lol. Future mods... a ls6 long block, eps custom bump stick, and a fast intake.

 

I don't think you can go wrong with either since they both have very satisfied customers. Since you're going to be running nitrous I would just get the tranny built to get it out the way.

 

How's the condition of your current transmission???

 

i would say stall the stock transmission but not with the nitrous... or atleast dont expect it to last too long with the nitro.

What i did was put a deposit down on a flt tranny (10% off sale and as to not burn through the warranty through the winter)and am gonna run my current trans and replace it next spring... Gonna send the converter back for a cut and clean when i replace.

 

Shifts like a dream, has a shift kit and some tuning done to it. The car and drivetrain only have 13,000mi.

 

Thats what Im leaning towards, thanks for your input!

 

FLT if you want it done right and want it to last. No questions asked!

 

FLT---- all the way.. Great guys..

 

FLT.......great people,with a great product...

good luck!

 

Thanks guys! I will be contacting andy @ flt in the near future!
